Further automating the process I outlined to Akkana, asking for verbose
lspci data, but for only the video component:

$ lspci | grep VGA | awk '{print $1}' | xargs lspci -v -s
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Rage XL AGP 2X (rev 27) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])
        Subsystem: ATI Technologies Inc Xpert 98 RXL AGP 2X
        Flags: bus master, stepping, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 11
        Memory at de000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16M]
        I/O ports at 7800 [size=256]
        Memory at df6ff000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4K]
        Expansion ROM at df6c0000 [disabled] [size=128K]
        Capabilities: <access denied>
$

(I don't have a machine with Intel video to use for this example.)
