(please reply on the list)
In general x86 video cards do not work because they have bios that need
to run x86 code (that's my understanding anyway). this has been
discussed several times on the list. there's an additional problem
which is that some pa firmware refuses to boot with non-HP gfx cards.
Your best bet is to get a PCI Vis-EG card which do work quite well.
