Thank you Andreas,

I run the following commands in order to get my video driver information:

address@hidden:~$ sudo lshw -c video
  *-display               
       description: VGA compatible controller
       product: Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller
       vendor: Intel Corporation
       physical id: 2
       bus info: address@hidden:00:02.0
       version: 02
       width: 64 bits
       clock: 33MHz
       capabilities: msi pm vga_controller bus_master cap_list rom

       resources: irq:28 memory:d0000000-d03fffff memory:c0000000-cfffffff

Then a used:

To tell you the truth, I don't know how to interpret that information.
Yet, it seems there is no NVIDIA tag there.
What is the best way to proceed?

Thanks
