VIA's support for their Unichrome chipsets on Linux is a little lacking. I got a system with one of these. It even had Linspire preinstalled, and running in vesa mode. There's a project for this, but from reading their site it looks they don't have the Unichrome Pro working well yet. http://unichrome.sourceforge.net/ You might try buying one in this case. Even most of the cheapest should give a significant improvement, provided that they have 3d support and working Linux drivers.
