I belive some SGI machines have graphics hardware supporting
10-10-10-2 R-G-B-A in 32 bits rather than the usual 8-8-8-8. The
Matrox Parhelia series also has this capability. I'm not sure if
it's possible to send this sort of data down a DVI-D link
though.

Also, judging from the forums, support for parhelia on Linux
isn't great. No 3D except in the experimental drivers, and no
support for SMP with 3D. I would like to buy a parhelia card
because they have two DVI outputs on a reasonably priced card -
but the drivers are simply far from good enough.
