I put the graphics card into the linux box and reinstalled Unantu. It works, but if I try anything that needs 3D graphics the program seems to start up then vanish. E.g. Celestia no longer works at all. The graphics card has two outputs, but as far as I can tell Linux isn't trying to send the graphics to a non-existent monitor or anything.

Any suggestions?

It should be possible to make that card work. Also since AGP has been deprecated you're going to have hard time finding compatible cards. The latest you can get are ATI R400 and R500 series or NVidia 7x00 series. Unfortunately ATI and NVidia have dropped support for these older cards from their latest drivers so the latest distributions don't really support them that well.
