Often, cards with a certain name are relatives of other cards.  For
example, many soundcards are SoundBlaster compatible.  You can often
use lspci to see the actual chipset involved, and either guess the
driver from there or see this page (and unfortunately do a lot of
navigation to find what you're looking for):

I hope this helps with the graphics card, and there's probably
somewhere similar for the audio card.
