you can always try an `X -configure` and see if the resulting
xorg.conf has 2 sections for cards. if it does, you will be fine with
a dvi to vga adapter. if not, you'll have to get another card. also,
it will depend on your motherboard whether you need an agp or pci
card. sometimes even if you have an agp slot on the board, the onboard
video is on the agp bus so putting the card in the agp slot will
disable the onboard video. good luck,

luke
