We had to run out and get a cheap nvidia card for my partner's
workstation (go ahead, try to find a card in a brick and mortar
shop that's neither ATI or Nvidia, and that 6 year old Matrox
card your local boardbender hasn't been able to sell all this
time doesn't count) after I installed Mandriva 2006 and
discovered that it would no longer do 3D acceleration on his
voodoo3, so that day may already be here depending on your
distro.
I call that a bug, and would have replaced the distro, not the hardware.
