Thanks Sysgate
I haven't tried the procedure mentioned in the Thread yet, But i didn't understand that "after installing the new card linux won't work" . Does linux does not automatically detect vga card while installation.

vga_setchipset
vga_setchipset(3) Svgalib User Manual vga_setchipset(3)
NAME
vga_setchipset - force chipset
SYNOPSIS
#include <vga.h>
void vga_setchipset(int chipset);
DESCRIPTION
Force detection of a chipset (when chipset detection fails). vga_setchipset(VGA) can be useful if the chipset specific stuff or the SVGA
detection stuff gives problems.
However, at first the automatic detection should work well, and if not a specific chipset can be forced from /etc/vga/libvga.config.
Because of that, void vga_setchipset(int chipset) should probably never be used by applications. If used nevertheless, it should be called
directly before vga_init(3).
As of now the following values are defined for chipset:
UNDEFINED
This is the default and specifies autodetection.
VGA A plain VGA card, not that the SVGA must behave like an ordinary SVGA card then which will probably mean it is in an ordinary
(25x80) textmode.
ET4000 Tseng ET4000/ET4000W32(i/p) cards.
CIRRUS Cirrus Logic GD542x/3x cards.
TVGA8900
Trident TVGA 8900C/9000 (and possibly also 8800CS/8900A/B) cards.
OAK Oak Technologies OTI-037/67/77/87 cards.
EGA An ordinary EGA card. The notes about VGA apply.
S3 An S3 base card.
ET3000 Tseng ET3000 cards.
MACH32 A card (from ATI or not) based on the ATI Mach32 chipset.
GVGA6400
A Genoa(?) GVGA6400 card.
ARK ARK Logic ARK1000PV/2000PV cards.
ATI An ATI SVGA (VGA Wonder and friends) card. This does not (necessarily) include the newer cards (usually called Mach something).
ALI An ALI2301 based card.
MACH64 A card using the ATI Mach64 chipset. Support is not complete.
CHIPS Chips and Technologies chipsets 65525, 65535, 65546, 65548, 65550, and 65554 (usually in laptops).
