I was wondering if anyone here has ever gotten a voodoo2 Accelerator card
(or better yet a Dual Voodoo2 SLI config) working in Debian.

If so under what kernel and most of all... how?
Everywhere I've looked it says the Voodoo chipset isn't supported until
Voodoo3+ cards..
is this correct?

If so am I out of luck using hardware acceleration in my favourite OS?
