To detect the chipset of your display card on a Linux system, you can use the lspci command. The lspci command is a utility that displays information about PCI buses and devices in the system.
To display information about your display card, you can use the -v flag with the lspci command. For example:
$ lspci -v | grep -i "VGA"
This will display information about the display card, including the chipset. The output will look something like this:
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GM107 [GeForce GTX 750 Ti] (rev a2) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])
