The answer to your question is "No, Linux won't care about the 3dfx
card at all."
However, it's worth noting that StarCraft is rumoured to be working
under WINE, the free Windows emulator for Linux. On top of that, a
petition is being organised to get the authors of Unreal to port it to
Linux. So, perhaps you won't have to dual-boot for very long. :-)
