Ok, I think I'm a little straighter in understanding. I must have
been reading the AGP 2.0 draft before as the AGP 3.0 draft has good
compatibility tables in it. I also see now that the signaling voltage
is the applied (connector keying) voltage.
Table 4-11 in the 2.0 spec doesn't show a universally keyed video
"add-in" card.

Table 16 in the 3.0 spec *does* show a universally keyed video card -
"UAGP".

From your nvidia link (faq # 49) it looks like geforce 2 is a
universally keyed video card as per the 3.0 spec. Too bad they didn't
say that directly in their answer.
