on my hybrid graphics card laptop, in the drivers section it shows 'NVIDIA Graphics Card Detected', but the 'Card/Chipset:' part shows the intel graphics card info.

The procedure currently scans the output of this command:

lspci | grep VGA

"NVIDIA" was found first, so it assumes the system has a NVIDIA card. I'll note down that we need to continue checking for other brands than assume a single card.

i think using inxi would likely be a good option.

inxi -G

inxi is being dropped from Welcome (16.10), due to changes in dependencies.
