details > unknown graphics card

[Thibault D]

With a laptop with an "AMD Radeon HD 6300 series" graphics card and an Ubuntu 12.10 daily build :

1/ Open gnome-system-monitor
2/ Go to System > Details
3/ See that your graphics card is not recognized : "unknown"
4/ Return to gnome-system-monitor
5/ Go to System > software sources (software-properties-gtk)
6/ Go to the new tab "Additional drivers"
7/ See that your graphics card is recognized : "AMD Radeon HD 6300 series"

Maybe the code used by the "Additional drivers" tab could be used by the details window ?

see screenshot.
