The most reliable way to determine whether your hardware model has UGA or
GOP is to select "About rEFIT" in the rEFIt boot screen.

http://refit.sourceforge.net/

You will see an output like this:

EFI Revision 1.10
Platform:  x86_64 (64 bit)
Firmware:  Apple 1.10
Screen Output:  UGA Draw (EFI 1.10), 1440 x 900

- or -

EFI Revision 1.10
Platform:  x86_64 (64 bit)
Firmware:  Apple 1.10
Screen Output:  Graphics Output (UEFI), 1440 x 900

>From my experience, models released after 2008 (MacBook5 and higher) should
have GOP.

Beware that on some Mac models (eg MacBookPro8,x), suspend/resume only
works when none of efi_uga and efi_gop are used
