GPL and TNT2?

I just read a couple of reviews of NVIDIA's TNT2 card and I wonder if it
will be able to run GPL. I currently use a Sound Blaster Voodoo2 with glide
for GPL. The reports indicate that TNT2 doesn't support glide, only D3D and
openGL. Clarification is appreciated since this new product looks fantastic
and I'm in the market for another accelerator.

Um, nothing but 3dfx based products support Glide. :)  So outside Banshee,
Voodoo, VoodooRush, Voodoo2 and Voodoo3 support it.

However, since TNT2 will support OpenGl, you might be able to use Papy's
beta OpenGL rendered for GPL.

Even if not, you can still use a TNT2 and Voodoo2 cards in the same machine.
