What i am sure is that, the card works on Windows 98. I have no experience 
on installing two graphic cards on Mandriva 2006. Here is the results of 
lspci.

You have mentioned DAC. I don't know how to find its information on the 
card. This is the characters which are on the main chip of the card.

S3 Trio64+
P1E3BF
86c765
9704   MCH7A
TAIWAN

Another information, which is maybe useful to you, is that, 
harddrake(Mandriva's control center) doesnot recognize the module of s3 
card. In accessory is a snapshot.
