When one does xorgconfig, the via driver isn't listed.  It's a bit of a
nuisance, and I confess, I found it out by doing X -configure, which I
always consider laziness.

Sure, it is lazy to do:

sudo X -configure
X -XF86config xorg.conf.new
# tweak resolution and colour depth if ya wanna
sudo cp xorg.cong.new /etc/X11/xorg.conf
startx

However, as Larry Wall points out, laziness is a virtue.

In FreeBSD, I'm able to get this information with pciconf -lv.  I think
there's something quite similar in Linux, but I seem to have forgotten
what it's called.
