If you don't mind using closed source drivers, I'd recommend any of the
newer nVidia GeForce cards, PCI-E works in Linux just as happily as AGP,
so I'd recommend PCI-E.

There's quite a selection, here's one from newegg for $38 that would be
just fine for everyday desktop use. If you're looking for higher
performance for games and stuff you'd probably want to aim for the
$150ish cards.
