Recently I'm only hearing about improvements on the newer ATI Radeon open source drivers.
I think that this shouldn't be a priority because people already have access to a closed source driver for the newer hardware.
However, older hardware from ATI lacks of support.
I have an ATI Radeon X1650 with 512 MB that works fine on Windows, and is able to play almost all recent games.
Although it is unable to render Compiz on Ubuntu 10.04.
On an old notebook that I have with a Mobility Radeon X300 I'm unable to use Google Earth on Ubuntu 10.04.
Is AMD going to abandon their old hardware costumers?
