Check which drivers have been installed:
$ ubuntu-drivers devices
== cpu-microcode.py ==
driver : intel-microcode - distro non-free
Optionally use the built-in test application to test the Ubuntu Linux installation:
Press the upper-left "Dash" icon and type "system testing". Click on the "Checkbox" application, which will start the "System Testing" program. Start the testing for the graphics device (and test other areas of the installation, if you would like).
Optionally benchmark the graphics GPU:
$ sudo apt-get install glmark2
$ glmark2
