Voodoo3... I say skip on that hunk of junk. You're better off using a Voodoo2 with your current card for 2D only (even if your current card supports 3D). From what I've seen the Voodoo3 isn't that much faster than the Voodoo2, it just adds 2d support to the Voodoo2. I'm sticking with my Voodoo2 until I can afford a card that'll spit out 32bpp 3D graphix at impossible resolutions at stupidly fast frame rates, and no the Voodoo3 doesn't do 32bpp at _any_ resolution in 3D.
no no no... it's the second digit in hte version number that indicates whether or not the kernel version is "stable". (i.e. all 2.2.x kernels are rated as "stable" while the next developement series will be the 2.3.x series)

I dunno ... I'm still on 2.2.4 ... if the patch rate keeps going like this I'm just gonna wait til 2.2.10 comes out.
