Here's a link to redhat's compatibility list for XFree86:
http://www.redhat.com/corp/support/hardware/intel/61/rh6.1-hcl-i.ld-10.html#vid
eo-xfree86-sort-man
just check that out, and buy from a brand that you recognize or something,
i.e. S3, ATI, Diamond or something. And get one with a decent amount of
RAM. The problem is that 2d cards are like a dime a dozen...it's not too
important what you get as long as it's on the list...
