Public bug reported: In Jockey's user interfaces(jockey-gtk/kde), we use vendor-name "ATI" (for FGLRX), But that is obsolete/enthusiast's term.
Now, Many users know that vendor as "AMD". "ATI" is forgotten by the many users... (Woe is me.). So, It's very regretful that, we should use "AMD"(or "AMD(ATI)") instead of "ATI" .
