I think this actually is more dependent on whether or not the card is capable 
of OpenGL, and what GL implementation you use.  Generally speaking in Linux, 
however, if you need GL, odds are nVidia might not necessarily be the way it 
was meant to be played, but it's probably the only way it will play.

There's two ways to deal with this reality right now,

1) Take some time out from gaming to hack on the GL drivers for your off-brand 
video chipset, or

2) Shop only vendors that do what you need in the first place...
