Re: [TCLUG:6536] Best 3D video card

[Nate Carlson <natecars@infiniteloop.com>]

For a Linux box, you're best off with a Voodoo 2/3 card. Voodoo's are the
only cards that are fully supported through hardware. Riva has support,
but it still forces the card to communicate through the X server, so it
isn't real fast.
