Just for the record, I'm not trying to just make AMD look bad here, I
think it's great that they released the GPU documentation, and that
they're paying people to work on the Mesa driver. Also, going by what
I hear from other people, fglrx improved a lot in the more recent
versions (certainly compared to the kind of support my Radeon 9800 Pro
had...), so it's not all bad. They just *really* need to fix their
developer relations stuff.
