Looking for the terminal command to show graphics driver in use on Zorin 17.1. Tried neofetch but that only shows the hardware card.

TIA

Unfortunately those aren't the droids I mean commands I am looking for as they show hardware info which I already have. I am after the Nvdia driver version. :slight_smile:

Found it good old DuckDuckGo, "modinfo nvidia" shows current driver version.

Glad to see you found a solution.

ubuntu-drivers list

ubuntu-drivers devices

The above also lists drivers, & the 2nd lists devices using nvidia.

you can also use inxi.

sudo apt install inxi
inxi -Ga
