Hi all, 
 
here is a summary of the 2 replies I received:
 
====== 
Orion Hodson hodson at icir dot org said: 
 
Pretty much all of the ATI cards these days (see XFree86 4.3.0 release notes 
at .ttp://www.xfree86.org/4.3.0/RELNOTES2.html#3). 
 
There's an example config and some notes at 
http://www.icir.org/hodson/1600sw/index.html

The Matrox GXXX series works great. I had a G200, which is pretty old by 
today's standards but gets the job done. 
 
 
 
thanks all, I'll post my results once I'll have a card.
