the easiest way to figure out whether your graphic card supports some 3d
hardware acceleration is to install "torcs" (racing simulator) and run
it :-)
I test my graphic card almost every day, just to make the 3d hw
acceleration does not disappear ;-)

Dear Jayson,
Here is what I have so far I hope it helps.
I tried the 2 commands suggested on ubuntu.com.
Command: lspci | grep VGA
Output:
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation
82845G/GL[Brookdale-G]/GE Chipset Integrated Graphics Device (rev 03)
Command: sudo lshw -C video
Output:
*-display
description: VGA compatible controller
product: 82845G/GL[Brookdale-G]/GE Chipset Integrated Graphics
Device
vendor: Intel Corporation
physical id: 2
bus info: pci@0000:00:02.0
version: 03
width: 32 bits
clock: 33MHz
capabilities: pm vga_controller bus_master cap_list rom
configuration: driver=i915 latency=0

Would information about the video card be shown on the BIOS screen?
Where else should I look?
Sincerely,
