Re: What Voodoo card for Linux

[Samuel Flory <sflory varesearch com>]

  Voodoo III cards work under linux, however their 2D performance isn't
very good compared to something like a Matrox G200 or G400.  (Then again
what is?)  I use a G200 and a set of interlaced VII's.  You will need a
newer server if you want to use a Banshee or VIII card.  (Note VI-VII
only did 3D requiring a normal video card)
