X support of graphic cards is really an XFree86 issue. That said, XFree86 3.3.4, released just about a month ago, does support both of those cards. However, I found that the drivers didn't like my G400 with 32MB of RAM (Heck, I didn't even want a G400, let alone one with 32MB of ram, but it was the only good 2D card I could get on short notice), and I had to explicitly tell it to use 16MB.
