Not 256K but 512K Oak with the OTI 067 controller. I doubt the 256K card will
be useful at all as even with 512K the display size is limited to a virtual
800x600.
If I were you, I'd buy a cheap ET4000, Cirrus, or S3 based board with 1 Meg
memory. You'll get 1024x768x256 @ 72 Hz with that (I have one at home in my
Linux box [soon to be upgraded to FreeBSD :-)) ])
