I'm looking for a good solid video card for my pentium IV machine.
I want to play Unreal Tournament 2004 on it and it has to work with the 2.6 kernel and I would prefer something that works straight away without too much tweaking and patching,

any suggestions?

Since ATI cards dont run so good on linux nvidias is your best bet.
The rest really depends on how deep your pockets are...
I would recommend a FX5900U or FX5950U.

I totally agree with blueworm. I've got good experiences with NVidia drivers.

If you can find one buy a FX5900 XT. realy cheap and realy good performance. Nvidia has however stopped to make them since they got a to large marketshare compared to their other cards (that probably has a higher profit margin for nvidia). But if you can find one of those 5900 XT's, buy it. It is cheap and fast, just a underclocked regular 5900 but for a much lower price.
