The Yamaha will work.
So will the Voodoo 5 but you know they were bought out and are out of
production.
The geforce 2 or 3 will work somewhat with free software drivers and the
proprietary drivers are on the PowerPack CDs for LM8.0, along with install
instructions.
The version 1.0 NVIDIA drivers appear to have critical flaws, but the older
drivers, including the ones we supply on the PowerPack, work fine.
