Does anyone run GPL on a Banshee card? I spose it will run glide as per
usual...is it comparable in speed with a voodoo2 setup?

I have, K6-233 + 3DFX banshee and 80Mo Ram.The only problems is when you
change screen resolution the game is rendered in the last resolution :

when i use 640x480 after using 1024x768 , screen is 1024x768 but there's
only graphic on top-left of screen : 640x480.

then I have to restart game.

Banshee is better than a Voodoo2 because there no double texturing used in
GPL.

I thought the banshee would perform better than a Voodoo2 in GPL since it
has the extra memory. What framerates are you getting? Is there anyone here
with a P2-266 or faster running with a Banshee?
