I checked with several of the area computer parts stores and
didn't find any PCI-E video cards old enough to work with
the open source ATI driver.
A Radeon X1050 (which is an RV370 chipset, supported in both 2D and 3D
by the Free radeon and r300_dri drivers) shouldn't be that hard to
find. I don't know where you live, but where I live there are several
such models available.

The Portland Oregon area isn't the technological outpost it was when
I start work at Tektronix in 1968. I checked Iguana Micro, ENU,
Pace Computers, and Fry's web sites. Chances are they sold X1050
PCI boards at one time, but no more. Fry's did list an AGP board,
but AGP is so yesterday. My last four motherboards are PCI-E.
Have you tried Free Geek? They had several PCI video cards at very
affordable prices last time I was there.

The page seems to be a little out of date as they have newer stuff than
what is listed there, including things like SATA and ethernet cables for $1.
