It should be able to drive the 3D component as a 2D engine. You wouldn't
however want to do that because the 2D component can do 2D acceleration
and higher resolutions.

The rush is effectively a 2D and 3D combo card with the 3D engine acting
as a sort of coprocessor running Glide. The Rush extension is there to
allow Glide apps to run with these cards and 2D X11 (its kind of
pre-pre-pre DRI ;))
