The folks to contact are at Control Systems, makers of the Artist
series of graphics boards. They have several models to choose from.
They support dual displays so you can have both VGA and TI340x0. They
purportedly sell their own X server with the card, but I havn't
personally tested it. (saw it running at last Jan. Uniforum).
These puppies ain't cheap.

Check out the Microfield controllers for non-TI supported graphics. Again,
I'm told they supply their own X server, dual display support, > 1200x1000x8
resolution, and best of all they claim a 200% performace gain over the
TI34020! (I'll beleive it when I see it) Once again, this is a pricey item,
too pricey for the average user.
