For linux, I'd recommend a nVidia card perhaps a 6600.
For gaming, both ATI and nVidia can do very well. I have a 9700pro and
a 6600GT, the nVidia binary driver is way better under linux than the
ATI one.

I had an ATI Radeon 9000 Pro, and I thanked my lucky stars every day
that I didn't have to use ATI's binary drivers (9000 Pro is the latest
supported by X's "radeon" driver, IIRC). If they supported 32 bit (or
even faked it as an alias to 24 bit), I'd be happier. But no, every
game that I had seeme

Not got a problem with my 5600 (about a year and half old now), fast
enough for Tuxracer and that.. not lightning fast for Doom III though :S
Any card you can buy today should be o.k. - y.m

I am very happy with my new nVidia card. I went through hell with my
ATI card. So I greatly recommend nVidia.
