Probably any on-board Intel chip card would do, if you really only need
text. Though if you wont some thing a little bit better, the smalles
nvidia available is you choice, drivers work really great in them.

I need to get an agp video card so take the video load off the regular
bus. Also my new monitor has 1600x900 resolution and the openchrome
driver doesn't recognize that resolution. I don't play games, so it's
mostly for text, web, and an occasional video file.
