well ive solved my own problem, i installed suse 9.1 and the hardware detector listed me as using an s3 card, but i guess since i am using virtual pc to host the operating system that is what it has to use, went through rest of process and all is smooth.
linux noob here but when i installed manny 10.1/10.2 with that card i used the "nv" driver.
