Well i have had a good search. Unfortunately it really is all so device independent that it is impossible to tell. I do recall once reading some kernel source code that verified a colour system was being used in it's initialisation routine. Unfortunately i have misplaced the code so if anyone comes across it, i think it may be used as such. I will keep searching. --[[User:Tyler|Tyler]] 10:08, 2 February 2007 (CST)
: For PCI cards you can probe the class and subclass; if the device class is 0x03 and the subclass is 0x01, then it is VGA compatible; there are no guarantees for any other subclasees (i.e. it might be VGA compatible or it might not).[[User:Clearer|Clearer]] 08:46, 16 December 2011 (UTC)
