how do I check if linux can see and use my discrete graphics card?

follow up question: how can I check that wine is using that card, instead of the integrated chip?

@lizardsquid you'd have to check on the driver utility
catalyst for ATI, nvidia setting for idem

Follow

@Efi I have an ATI card, but I have no idea how to access catalyst

@lizardsquid you should have a shortcut if it's installed properly
did you install the proprietary drivers for it?

@lizardsquid in xfce4 a shorcut goes in the settings submenu *shrug*
on linux you have to select the non-free repo tag to get the drivers, on windows you install them with an installer from the ati web
