If X doesn't work any more with this card, I might as well stay with the original HP FX2 card, which works OK in console/text mode..
It used to work but config for X changed, and I wasn't able to get it going.  That was about a year or so ago.

If you see output from the VisEG card in the ISL, then the card should work.  There are a couple of options to specify on the linux command line.

        sti=            [PARISC,HW]
                        Format: <num>
                        Set the STI (builtin display/keyboard on the HP-PARISC                         machines) console (graphic card) which should be used
                        as the initial boot-console.
                        See also comment in drivers/video/console/sticore.c.

        sti_font=       [HW]
                        See comment in drivers/video/console/sticore.c.

        stifb=          [HW]
                        Format: bpp:<bpp1>[:<bpp2>[:<bpp3>...]]
