I would use an ATI (err, AMD) graphics card.  I have been using one for 
the last several years now, mostly because of the huge environmental 
shift in driver support.

The in-kernel radeon driver performs very nicely, supports kernel mode 
setting and Just Works™.  I haven't tested it with the ATI "high-end" 
cards as I don't need googlebytes of video RAM; I just have a 1 GB card 
which is "high performance" enough for my needs (running a desktop, 
playing video occasionally, and sometimes playing games like Guild 
Wars).  But mostly, the graphics card's memory supports driving my huge 
displays.
