Apollo OEM'ed a whole bunch of PG-1281s from Matrox around 1988/89. I
believe that the Apollo version was pretty much the same (except for
video connectors) as the regular Matrox PG-1281 which was introduced at
Siggraph '87.
The card was based on the TI TMS34010, with many operations supplied by
custom asics.  Of the asics there was the BIGA (Bus Interface Gate Array),
the ROGA (Raster Operation Gate Array) and one more, I think.  These
gate arrays drew vectors and performed bitblt operations faster than
the 34010 could by itself.  This card was not only one of the first,
but also the fastest 34010 design ever shipped.
I wrote a few X servers for the 1281 family for ISC 386/ix, SCO Xenix (?)
AT&T SVR3 for 386, and SunOS, IBM wrote one for AIX.  Matrox sold a source
version of that DDX to OEMs to allow them to integrate the card into their
systems.  Matrox might still have it laying about.  Of course, you'd need
the matching libshell ucode (the Apollo ucode was of Apollo's design, and
thus completely different) and the accompanying ucode downloading program.
Perhaps if you get a nice guy in the Matrox support, they'll send that
code to you.

This is some hack code that I put together along with some work from Hamish Coleman (hamish&zot.apana.org.au) to basically diddle the Apollo Mono and 4/8 plane ISA-bus display cards.
The code has the ability to clear the screen, blit characters onto the screen, and scroll the screen up.
