I've previously had this same monitor and card working under X11 on a
Linux box.  I am curious if anyone has experienced problems getting an
ATI Graphics Ultra Pro 2MB (Mach32) VLB card to work with X11.  When
using an IBM card setting (IBM XGA 1MB NI) I can get things working at a
minimal configuration, however when I select my card and monitor
correctly I get a blank screen and the whole system locks up.

Any assistance would be appreciated.
