Unfortunately there's not a video card for XF86/Linux that does both great 2D and 3D at the same time as far as I know. G400 is great for 2D but it's very CPU dependent as far as 3D is concerned. The reason why geforce cards are so slow currently in 3D in XF86 is because drivers are not ready yet

I love my g400 max. Matrox is always the leader in 2d, and this carddoes great with things like quake 3 area, so I'm guessing that more than enough 3d. But I'm not sure if its dual headed stuff is supported. If it is, could someone tell me how? that would rock. -Aaron Solochek [EMAIL PROTECTE
