A quick check on ATI's site (www.atitech.com) shows that thay now have
their own Linux drivers, at least. A lot of companies will do this - they
won't give the needed details out, but will (after enough complaints come
in) release one themselves. I haven't looked, but my bet is that its a
binary-only release.
