I have yet to find a single machine (and I just tested it on all 8 in my immediate vicinity) that the command I gave won't give you back the model number of the card.
Can anyone provide an example of a machine where:
sudo lspci -v | grep VGA
Example 1: My headless Intel INS1020 (w/o a graphics card of any kind) returns nothing. :)
Example 2: One of the minimal LRP-based routers I have still in production returns an error (no sudo command, no lspci command), but that's kind of cheating.
I suspect non-pci graphics cards (ie: ISA/EISA) would also not show up in lspci output, but that might also be considered cheating, and I have no easy way to test this (the minimal systems I currently have assembled and ready access to wouldn't be able to boot and run anything that includes lspci).
Interestingly, the minimal flash-based debian fanless firewall install I showed at the recent KULUA *DOES* properly list the VGA card (AMD Geode LX Video), at least if I rip off the sudo part (sudo isn't installed) and just run lspci -v | grep VGA as root. :)
