Andy's very thorough posting on his experience with the latest ATI drivers has sent a few ripples through the geek community. Andy, I think you get the geek of the week award. :-)
Anyway, here is a response from ATI which I am passing along to the list. It is great to see ATI making some headway on the Linux front.

Hi there,
Last week we posted a set of unified Linux drivers. These drivers were only loading up on "Built by ATI" cards. Through our various feedback mechanisms we have determined that there is a large community of "Powered by ATI" Linux users that did not benefit from our Linux drivers. At this point we are happy to announce an update to our Linux driver (ver. 2.5.1) which will work on both "Powered by" and "Built by". ATI's driver and software strategy is firmly based on responsiveness and we greatly appreciate the feedback our Linux users have provided. Please use http://apps.ati.com/linuxDfeedback/ for a direct feedback line to ATI.
Thanks again for the feedback,
Terry Makedon
Sr. Product Manager - Software
