Hi guys, what do you think of this?

What I understand is that, basically, you can end up with a Linux Host  and a Windows Guest that uses real VGA hardware. Catch my drift?

Hmm... is this possible? @@

The voodoo drivers might have to be modified for this I guess.
I've read through the pages a little bit, it could be a week end project for someone who has the necessary hardware, the patience and some linux knowledge.
I don't have the hardware for this at this time, and doubt that I will get it anytime soon... Might check how much it costs to gather up though,,,
