Glide cards? (was Voodoo3 cards)

Not really a concern to me...  Loki ports aren't very friendly to >16 bit
color anyhow.  (Myth 2 states that it's only playable in 16 or 32 bit color;
Heretic 2 refuses to even start if it detects any color depth than 16 bit.
They say it's due to limitations of the drivers, but I'm not so sure about
that...)

OK, new question, then:

What would you recommend for a Linux-friendly Glide board that can do
hardware acceleration in a window?
