It probably comes with documentation on how to develop software using
OpenCL, not how to program the hardware directly, although if they came
with hardware docs that'd be great.

There are some experimental OpenGL drivers provided by nouveau, see:
http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/MesaDrivers

I can't say how well those drivers work, I own an ATI (now AMD) card,
which works with free software drivers, although there is no free
software OpenCL impl. that works with that one either yet.
