It is indeed bus, device, function

if you type

less /proc/pci

you should find a section with the words VGA in it. Mine, for an AGP
video card (a Matrox G400), says this:

  Bus  1, device   0, function  0:
    VGA compatible controller: Matrox Graphics, Inc. MGA G400 AGP (rev
3).
      IRQ 10.
      Master Capable.  Latency=32.  Min Gnt=16.Max Lat=32.
      Prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xe4000000 [0xe5ffffff].
      Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xe6000000 [0xe6003fff].
      Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xe7000000 [0xe77fffff].

In this case, I put in:

PCI:1:0:0

(I believe all AGP cards are found on the PCI bus, for some strange
reason. That may just be some of them, though.)

If that doesn't have it, you might check in /proc/bus and see if there's
an agp directory which might have that type of information.
