Description
This function enumerates the number of available display devices on the PCI bus, and returns the number found. The number of devices allows you to load graphics drivers for each device, but calling GA_loadDriver starting with device 0 and up to the maximum number of devices-1. Note that even though we may enumarate a valid PCI display device, it is possible that no graphics driver is available for the device and the GA_loadDriver function could fail.
Hence this function does not enumerate all the devices and match them up with valid graphics drivers; the matching to available drivers is done when you call GA_loadDriver.
