I have exactly the same motherboard as you, as well as the same questions. 
I may have an answer to your sprite problem.  I've noticed this happening on
programs such as Dynamic Studio (sprites for bar count and metronome) and
pointer hacks (only a few).  It seems that this blur only occurs if you've
shifted the screen from where the program thinks it should be.  I use
morerows on an NEC Multisync II so my screen is quite shifted.  If I boot
from Dynamic Studio with their sys-config it's fine, otherwise it's pooched.
 Basically I just had a script copy the sys-config from Dynamic Studio to
system-configuration and switch to that config every time I ran DS and then
back again when I was done and that worked fine.  (Incidentally I don't have
that problem any more...I switched to Music-X :-)

  Unfortunatley I also have a REV 2 A2088 Bridgecard and do wish to speak to
David "god" Haynie about that in E-Mail.  Many problems with it too.  I know
I'm drifting but does anyone else have flaky Bridgecards (ie. a truck drives
by and you have to re-seat it and then fiddle for hours to get it working
again -=>Dave?).  I'm particularly interested to see if the new ones are as
flaky as the old.
