ATI seems to have changed their stance on Linux drivers lately. They
integrated at least part of the development with the regular Catalyst
releases and the last few drivers offered pretty good performance and
compatibility. The only problems I encountered so far are a rather
touchy AGPGART integrated driver, instability under kernel 2.6.0-testX
(although you wonder why those are running anyway) and problems with TV
overlay in conjunction with 2.6.0 kernels. 3D support absolutely rocks
and 2D performence has gotten a *lot* better in the last few months.
