My point exactly. And if you are foolish enough to not use SuSE or Red Hat, you can expect a world of hurt. My situation is close to the worst possible one:
Nvidia Nforce2 chipset with an ATI Radeon 9700 AIW. On Gentoo!
I have almost the same setup, NForce2 (A7N8X DLX) and Radeon 9500 also running on gentoo. I recently did a fresh install and used the ATI drivers and it all works perfectly.
What is everyone complaining about, I am using ATIs binary drivers for XFree 4.3 and they are working perfectly for OpenGL rendering, I can play UT2003 easily at insane framerates. I have found nothing wrong with ATIs drivers except that they are close sourced.
