I'm building a new computer that will run Ubuntu Linux as it's primary OS. I plan on dual booting Windows to play games, and with all the AMD / ATI Linux headway, I thought I'd buy their GPU to show some support. But before I do, I need to make sure that the ATI drivers (preferably the open source ones for an HD 48x0) can support:
1. Widescreen Monitors (specifically 22inch widescreens)
2. Dual Monitors (absolutely necessary)
3. Multimedia (movies)
Compiz and all that 3D stuff isn't too important for me. I know that in the near future, the ATI drivers will be much better, but for right now, I just need something rock solid. Am I better off going with nVidia?
