Minor edit to shorten first sentence a bit
  • Inxi has a -x for details, which you use like -v in SSH. -x, -xx or -xxx
  • Why -x? Cause e**x**tra.
  • I'd try `sudo inxi -G -xxx` though if it WILL report VRAM is another matter. My help says:
  • > -G Device serial number, class ID; Xorg Screen size, diag;
  • Monitors: hz, size, modes, serial, scale, modes
  • (max/min).
  • Inxi version 3.3.13 here. Bash, Ubuntu.
  • ## If not inxi...
  • > glxinfo | grep memory
  • Video memory: 23898MB
  • Unified memory: yes
  • GL_AMD_performance_monitor, GL_AMD_pinned_memory,
  • GL_EXT_framebuffer_object, GL_EXT_framebuffer_sRGB, GL_EXT_memory_object,
  • GL_EXT_memory_object_fd, GL_EXT_packed_depth_stencil, GL_EXT_packed_float,
  • GL_AMD_pinned_memory, GL_AMD_query_buffer_object,
  • GL_EXT_gpu_shader4, GL_EXT_memory_object, GL_EXT_memory_object_fd,
  • GL_EXT_map_buffer_range, GL_EXT_memory_object, GL_EXT_memory_object_fd,
  • Inxi has a `-x`, `-xx`, `-xxx` for e**x**tra details.
  • I'd try `sudo inxi -G -xxx` though if it WILL report VRAM is another matter. My help says:

Why -x? Cause e**x**tra.

I'd try `sudo inxi -G -xxx` though if it WILL report VRAM is another matter. My help says:


> -G  Device serial number, class ID; Xorg Screen size, diag; 
                      Monitors: hz, size, modes, serial, scale, modes 
                      (max/min).

Inxi version 3.3.13 here. Bash, Ubuntu.
