Why are you butchering the command?? If you run the command as I gave it you would get the desired output. If you start messing around and breaking up (and in this case rREMOVING sections of the command), you can break your OS

COPY the command as ONE and paste to the terminal, press ENTER and it WILL work. This is why I give the EXACT command

Thanks

First, I am very new to Ubuntu and like all new things, it takes time to learn. I had no intention of butchering your the command. My interpretation was that it was two separate commands. The following is the command as requested:

*-display
       description: VGA compatible controller
       product: NV34 [GeForce FX 5200]
       vendor: nVidia Corporation
       physical id: 0
       bus info: pci@0000:01:00.0
       version: a1

Thank you very much for your assistance.
