You won't get hardware 3D with nvidia and open source drivers. So
you'll either have to accept the proprietary drivers (which are pretty
good IMO) if you want hardware 3D, or prefer an ATI card supported by
the radeon driver. But I have no current experience with ATI, so
others will have to comment about that side of the world.
