Grazie milla Danilo!
lspci -v Video result:

Does any experienced user know what I am missing in having an integrated
video card like this? If I'm going to go out and buy a PCI add-on video
card, I want to be sure what to look for. Unfortunately, these cards are
mostly referenced by their mem capacity: 32Mb, 64Mb, 128Mb, etc. But I'm
sure there must be another parameter I should be looking for. What is
it?
