Isn't one of the Sun Cards designed off of an ATI 7000 chipset?  How hard 
would it be to get one of those to work I wonder.  Every Linux I have tried 
with this card, I get artifacts and sometimes tearing.  If I use command 
line, I still get artifacts.  Left over words, etc....  I am hoping that 
there is a card out there that works and is stable with my E250 and Linux.
