Err.. only if you enjoy random crashing.  The frambuffer device never
worked for me and I'd rather pull my teeth out than deal with it in X.  
Again, the Rage128 is a fairly standard card (across PC's and Macs), has
decent support on pretty much everything, and is about $20 w/shipping on
pricewatch.com.  It's a crappy 3d card but a fine 2d card if ever I saw
one.  If you can just get one of these and make your life easy.

For those who enjoy pain...
