Both lshwd and hwd show the wrong video driver for my Chips and Tech graphics chipset in my laptop. It shows vesa. It should show chips. (I use the chips driver in my /etc/X11/xorg.conf file).

Here is the output:

Reason for closing:  Fixed
Additional comments about closing:  lshwd has been patched to support Xorg 7.x. Be sure to have the drivers installed, as it will list vesa otherwise.
