From the silicon motion homepage you could get a framebuffer driver for
the SM501 PCI card. This should work without great modifications for
PPC systems.
On our board (with MPC5200 CPU), we connected the SM501 not over PCI,
but over the local bus. You could find the driver in the 
linuxppc_2_4_devel Kernel from the Denx CVS server. Look at: http://www.denx.de/e/index1.php?head=solution-se-head&main=solution-se&subnav=solution-se-subnav&logo=logo-se&mainnav=softwarenav&bottom=bottom-se
