I realize this is an ancient card and support is unlikely, but what the heck.

I have a PCI GC-K2P-64 Pixel Perfect video card that comes up in 800x600 mode. Is it possible to get better resolution than this on Jaunty?

The best advice I've found so far is to bag it up and send it to a museum, as drivers haven't been available since Linux 2.4.
