I suspect this is a card with the i740 chipset.
Due to non disclosure agreements, this chip can't be supported by
Xfree86, but there are other X servers for it.
At the redhat web/ftp sites, it is possible to download a free
binaries-only server for this card.
You could also use commercial servers, but this is by far more
expensive. (for example http://www.scitechsoft.com/sdd.html )
