All native Linux games have worked fine so far in
Mandriva LE2005 and Mandrake 10.1 using NVidia. Played
demo versions of UT2K3, UT2K4, Doom3 and rune so far.
GeForce3 Ti200 card.
The only issue I've had is with the NVidia proprietary
drivers; there was a bug in the kernel interface
source that prevented it from compiling should you
have to, the fix was a simple one-line edit. I think
that's all been straightened out in the latest driver
release though.
