I don't know about the sound card, but the video card works (the
monitor makes no difference). Since the video card is quite cheap, I
highly recommend reading up on the VESA framebuffer in the kernel docs
and using that (along with the 'fbdev' X driver) instead of
configuring X to use the vid. card directly. I have the card and have
tried both ways -- first I configured X, then tried out the
framebuffer. Configuring X is doable, but not quick or trivial.
Using the framebuffer is quick, and trivial once you know how to build
a kernel.
