I don't think this is a permedia2 card, as the permedia2
was a single chip with 2D and some 2D integrated. This
is likely an older card (such as a Gloria L).

The real permedia2 was supported at some point in the
linux kernel (I used th code as th basis for pm3fb), but
the maintainer orphaned it a while ago. The virge could
work by itself, I suppose (it's likely a different PCI
function).
