Hi, I had an ATI RageIIc or RageII in my AS 1000A 5/400 and that worked just fine with GNOME, although it was a bit slow on that machine (no acceleration?) I would guess that most older Rage-based ATI chipsets will work just fine as well. I also had a Matrox Millenium [2] card in too earlier that worked OK. You can find some for around $10 on eBay, go for a 4MB or 8MB model. Matrox Mystique might also work but I had flashed mine to a Mac BIOS and hadn't tested in the AS.
