lsmod will list the kernel modules loaded. But I'm not sure if that is
what you're lookin for?

You can also use lspci with the -v flag to see hardware and kernel
driver. 

Also, lsusb for USB devices.

For graphics there are at least three different drivers, a kernel
module, a driver for X11 and driver for OpenGL.

Finding the X11 driver is probably easiest by looking through the Xorg
log, for the OpenGL driver you can use glxinfo.
