I think this is exactly what he's talking about ;-)
Because the SDL library is basically a wrapper around x11 and Xvideo (on 
linux), and when Xvideo is not supported (the case here) SDL defaults to an 
x11 output.

AFAIK the XFree guys have no plan to support Xvideo for the TNT,TNT2. But it 
is already supported with the Geforce series.
You can however get Xvideo support for the TNT/2 by using the nvidia driver 
(got to www.nvidia.com).
