Does the onboard Intel HD Graphics 4600 has a serial number? If so, how do you get it?

[RTan4]

I have an Intel 4th generation Core I7 processor with the onboard graphics running Linux OS. I was wondering if the graphics card has a serial number? Thanks!

The "graphics card" is actually a part of the SoC (system on a chip).

For reference: on my Windows rig it looks like that

Thank you Stefan3D!

I got this scan result for the Display:

What does the "Adapter RAM" mean? It has 256M as the size?

Thanks!

I guess that's the same what is called "dedicated video RAM" on Windows? If an app needs more RAM, it's allocated dynamically.

Check the following documents for further GPU infos:

Another question, when the Serial Number is "To be filled up by O.E.M," where is it being read by the System Support Utility? Is it a firmware, BIOS, or flat file?

I know the serial number that I would like to fill it up.

Thanks!

Found the folder where the ssu.sh is reading from. I could not update the file(s), board_serial or product_serial. Can they be manually updated if I changed the permission?

Thanks!
