Not true; I've been using them together for the last two versions of the
ATI drivers:
motub -> uname -r
2.6.15-gentoo
motub -> fglrxinfo
display: :0.0 screen: 0
OpenGL vendor string: ATI Technologies Inc.
OpenGL renderer string: RADEON 9800 SE Generic
OpenGL version string: 2.0.5582 (8.21.7)
(upgraded from 8.20.8 yesterday).

The gentoo ebuild(s) already contains this patch:
# $Header:
/var/cvsroot/gentoo-x86/x11-drivers/ati-drivers/ati-drivers-8.21.7.ebuild,v
1.2 2006/01/21 21:15:52 anarchy Exp $
<snip>
# fix kernel oops for acpi
if kernel_is 2 6 15; then
epatch ${FILESDIR}/${P}-linux-2.6.15.patch
fi
}
