I have an 'Intel(R) HD Graphics 630' and an 'Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060' on my system.lspci |grep -i vgaonly showed the Nvidia card though. You may check the output ofsudo lshw -C displayin my another question [askubuntu.com/questions/1028979/…. I am not sure if I have the drivers installed, at least I haven't installed them specifically. I am not sure if Ubuntu has installed it's own drivers for video cards or not @JoshuaBesneatte

That folder is empty for me too. Look for your card type with:
System Settings->Details->About
or from the command line
lspci |grep -i vga
and then you can find what driver you are using with:
lsmod
then update/create your config according to the link you posted
