Supported fast graphics cards?

["David M. Cooke" <d.m.cooke@larc.nasa.gov>]

I've been asked which graphics card to get for a purchase of 5
systems to run Linux.  There are a lot of new cards out there
and new versions of cards I was familiar with but enough has
changed that I'm not sure exactly what to specify.

I and some friends have Mach64 cards at home that we bought about
a year ago and are very hapily running Debian Linux on but what
would I specify to get a XFree86 X-Server compatible graphics
card now?

If you have a recomendation for a _specific_ model of graphics
card that you know works (1280x1024x256), please let me know.
It will speed my search.

Thanks.
