The minimum requirements for GPL are P5-166 w/ 32MB
RAM.  These numbers are not plucked out of thin air; if anything,
they're rather optomistic.  I was running GPL on a P5-233
w/ 64MB RAM w/ a 16MB Guillemot Phoenix Banshee and
the framerates were too low to allow reasonable control.  As
a result, it wasn't particularly enjoyable and did not do the game
justice.  I don't imagine it would be anything but a slideshow
on your system, Banshee or not.

Sorry but a 3D card is not a fix all for a slow system.
