The major chipsets are the GLiNT, the Voodoo, and the Oxygen, of which the first two should be supported (hopefully). Check this URL: http://fantasia.vr.clemson.edu/~adamsk The card is REALLY nice for gaming. There is a GL-based version of Quake that changes the game entirely. 800x600x65536 is a bit slow compared to 320x200x256, but very well worth it. Many game developers are having a 3d-based accelerator (Monster, Righteous, etc) required for use! Kevin
