How to know that all my drivers are installed?


hey.
I just installed Kubuntu 64 bit and I was wondering: how can I verify that all my drivers are properly installed? Youtube works kind of slow in full screen, and so I was wondering if maybe my drivers aren't installed.

In windows, you just go to device manager and it says if there are missing drivers. How could I verify this in Kubuntu?

Thanks.

There should be an entry in your menus called "Additional Drivers" which will allow you to add proprietary drivers where available.
