    It is for selected graphics boards.  Definitely for 3dfx Banshee and
    Voodoo3 chips.  I think there are others, specifically I think most NVidia 
    chips.  ATI has just recently released 3D specs for their recent popular 
    cards, though I don't think 3D drivers exist yet.  There is some 
    information at www.linux3d.org though it's a bit out of date.
   
    Also, XFree86 4.0 is likely to be out well before the second half of 2000.
    It may be out as early as the end of this year, though the developers
    never make promises.
