Try: dpkg -l xfree* | grep "^ii"
The output should be something like:
ii xfree86-common 4.1.0-17 X Window System
(XFree86) infrastructure
dpkg is the debian package manager. The -l causes dpkg
to list all packages that match the pattern "xfree*".
The output of that command is piped "|" into the stdin
of grep which looks for lines that begin "^" with
"ii", lines for which the package is actually installed.
