Yes, these series of graphics card were OEM'd by Sun (really Radeon) and therefore appear on the Sun HAL. I've not heard of any other than the XVR-100 going in an Ultra 10 but that doesn't mean they won't.

My interpretion of "degraded performance" is that PCI bus speeds increased over time and the later Radeon cards can be clocked faster but the Ultra 10 can't clock the card at the rate that it's capable of, but it still works.

My understanding is the a XVR-100 will do 1600x1200x24 so I would be tempted to buy a used one off ebay for US$40 unless I needed to do more than that.
