I can sell you a dual voodoo2 set of cards for $100.00 you want (they total 
16 meg of ram:-) (I also have a 12meg single voodoo2 for $65 If anyone else 
is looking..)
Voodoo2's work OK in linux.. I've never set them up though.. there was a site 
called voodoolinux.org or something once.. they might be able to help you..

Prolly not what your after but I thought I'd mention them anyhow..
