I finally got tired of trying to get my ATI Radeon 9000 Pro to work properly with Linux. I had to jump through hoops to get Google Earth to work, I had to turn of stars in Celestia with gconf-editor to prevent it from crashing, Neverwinter Nights would crash at random, and I had problems with certain color-depth / resolution combinations. I kept hearing that NVIDIA’s proprietary drivers work much better than ATI’s, and with the fact that ATI will no longer produce drivers for the Radeon 9000 Pro, I decided to purchase a NVIDIA graphics card.
