i'm currently using ati and intel drivers, track couple of related
mailing lists and other content so my post is not actually about my
problems.
most xorg (and related software) users don't need to know gpu core
names but they do need to know what to buy when they go shopping for a
new graphics card.
i do believe that users would like "best buy" for open source drivers
suggestions and especially what not to buy. i also think it is fair
that graphics card and manufacturers get bad reputation for anything
but excellent support and cooperation with xorg community.
