Installing Video Drivers

Question

How can I install all video-drivers in Ubuntu 14.04 LTS 32 bit? I have no idea what videocard I have.

A guide for 64 bit is also welcome, thank you!

To find out which video card you have, you can run

lspci | grep VGA

Based on that, you can then search to find out which drivers to install.

You can install all video drivers with the package xserver-xorg-video-all.

sudo apt-get install linux-headers-generic xserver-xorg-video-all libgl1-mesa-glx libgl1-mesa-dri xserver-xorg-core

Open the "Additional Driver" dialog:

enter image description here

Or from a terminal software-properties-gtk --open-tab=4

You will get some suggestions for your video card.
