I think ATI have improved their drivers a lot. I've only seen them from a
Windows perspective though. For linux I have tended to stick with Nvidia, but
ATI may well be worth more consideration now.
I'm surprised that distros would load ATI 3D by default when they don't for
Nvidia. There was a package available for Nvidia in the Ubuntu repositories
(may have been in multiverse, can't remember). Worked nicely.
I don't think it is because there is native ATI 3D support. I thought 3D for
both was by proprietary binary installers only?
Neil,
I can play Tux Racer on Mandriva 2005 LE with the native drivers for ATI
cards. I had to load the genuine nVidia drivers for Redhat 10, Fedora
Core 2 and Mandrake 10.1 to do it.
