As a fringe linux user, I'm aware that Ati has a poorer reputation than Nvidia regarding graphics drivers support.
I don't want to start a flame war, but how does this affect integrated video chipset drivers?
At some point I'd like to build a new desktop using something in the 6150/7050 or 690G class. I'm not a gamer so I'm thinking more of general 2D display, but also considering the current desktop eye candy and also video and HD playback.
As a frequent poster at another hardware site, I'd also like to be able to give accurate advice on the linux capability of these chipsets.
