Currently only "complete" ati driver is proprietary fglrx for which to work i need to install old version (7.11) first and it does not work fine with compiz (opengl apps suffer from flickering problems, same when watching videos). "ati" driver does work, but performance is lower and color depth is reduced for some reason. Maybe those problems will not affect you, but since my old nvidia fx card works much better, i recommend not to buy ati card until open source drivers will mature.
- brettalton, on 06/28/2008, -0/+3Does this mean my next card should be ATI instead of nVidia?
- shrewduser, on 06/28/2008, -0/+2all i know is that since yesterday my desktop and laptop are both ATI for the first time in years (nvidia / intel) ATI make a good product, and now they are also linux friendly and its in my interest to buy them again.
so kudos ATI on your technical excellence and your commitment to my favourite platform. - tito13kfm, on 06/28/2008, -0/+1no
