Been running them on Fedora Core 3, Suse 9.1 and CentOS without issue.
Cards in question are 6600 GT on FC3 and 5200 on 9.1 and CentOS. Both
fairly cheap no name cards with Nvidia chip sets. The CentOS install
took 2 attempts for some reason.

I had issues installing them Debian but that was many years ago now.

Not had chance to try gaming under Linux with them but I had a friend
who ran Counter Strike very nicely under Transgaming`s WINE, not with
Nvidia though...
