I'm wondering if someone can walk me through how to figure out what video
driver I am using, and what other drivers might be available to try?
Not without knowing anything about your GPU:
Yes, I figured that that would be the first step; I didn't know how to do that
either, so thanks for taking my "walk me through" request seriously.

FYI, the actual physical size of the monitor is quite a lot larger than the
23" reported in the output above. I don't suppose that that matters, but I
noticed that the numbers are wrong, so I thought I'd better mention it. The
actual diagonal size of the monitor is ~32".
