They aren't scriptable, but often they are faster than getting all the
flags just right on a command set. On most machines lspci outputs
less than two screen pages of info. lspci is the command to deal with
here and it's output is nearly always easy enough to wade through
without needing a custom grep/filter set to get what you need. Heck,
(nearly?) all AGP video chips show up on PCI:1:0:0, so that's usually
the only thing to look for if it's an AGP machine.
