I have an ATI Radeon 9200SE, which is probably either exactly or nearly 
the same thing (I admit I know nothing about this "Sapphire," but it 
must be a re-branded ATI Radeon). Although I have only 64Mb on mine. It 
works fine out of the box on FC1.

A colleague of mine has the same card, and had trouble getting X to 
start properly, but it was a different monitor, and that was the 
problem--the Radeon was identified properly. Always amazes me that the 
monitor can cause so much trouble.
