curious about the voodoo display driver

i've had this old k6-2 box sitting around, on an mATX board with SD ram, and a pair of voodoo 2's in it. and i'm curious how well the xf86-video-voodoo driver works, in terms of 3d performance. would be cool to play some old retro games under wine or dos box or something

the package description though says its for voodoo1 or voodoo2......i have a voodoo3 that i recently got my hands on as well that i would prefer to use

You can't run arch on that box. k6-2 is not i686.
There is a 3.rd party i586 fork tho, but I don't know the current status of it.

i know about the i586 thing already, im just asking about those drivers here.

i just got a new phenom x4 setup. so im pondering building a gentoo install in a virtual machine and trying to clone it to a harddrive
