Well, i haven't seen an IDE (atapi) cd-rom yet that won't run under Linux..
As for the card hmm - what chipset are we talking here ET6000?

For Linux use I'd reckon a Cyrix chip might be a better way to spend your
money - and may free up enough cash for the tape drive - which would be a 
very good investment (please no flames on the cyrix v. intel issue!)

Well, that's just my 0.2's anyway
