Unfortunately not, I have no spares and all my other machines are 
laptops except the Linux server but the graphics chipset is on-board. I 
am toying with the idea of just buying a cheap (non ATI) PCI graphics 
card off Ebay purely for running X. I know it would have an x86 BIOS 
onboard which would mean it couldn't be used as the primary display (I'd 
still keep the mac ATI card installed) but I suspect it may be possible 
to use it with X still - at least if it's possible to init the card 
without relying on its BIOS.

Hey no worries, I really appreciate all the help you've given :-)
