I'm working on making the switch from Windows to Ubuntu. Does Ubuntu have an equivalent to "Device Manager"? What I want to do is check if all of the hardware in the machine has correctly installed drivers. (without having to run a plethora of individual lsusb, lspci, modprobe, etc. I'm not quite there yet.)

Dash, type in "test" and it will show a test suite.When started it will take a while collecting and then show this:

It will take a while but the end result will be a full report.

Besides that... if you do no run into crashes or get error notices it basically works. Ubuntu (Linux in general) uses generic drivers. So if you can use it it works ;)

For you graphics card there is an alternative to go 3rd party (proprietary).

Dash, search for "software & updates":
