interesting:The patents cover 3D graphics sold to Microsoft by SGI in 2001. We reported in January 2002, on finding out about the sale, that it represented the "bulk" of SGI's 3D intellectual property assets.
weren't fglrx (or even mesa) reporting an SGI string in earlier times when invoking glxinfo ?
