What is lspci output ?

The lspci command lists all the hardware connected to the PCI bus. The lsusb command lists all the hardware connected via USB.

Open a terminal.

Type lspci.

Post the output in this thread.

Type lsusb.

Post the output in this thread. Also a complete model number of the might be helpful as well.

device `v4l:/dev/video1' is a Noname Medion Md8800 Quadro virtual device
