I presume that's two separate boxes and cards? :)
I am told Voodoo 3 should work. Nvidia: sounds like you'd need the
nvidia-supplied binaries? I don't have 'em. I do know that there's
an 'nv' driver from XFree86 which does 2-D stuff but the 3-D stuff
is only available by downloading binaries from the nvidia ftp site.
Wherever that is.
