ATI Radeon 8500 Linux Drivers -- 11:39 am CST, Update by A.T. Hun
ATI has released XFree86 4.x drivers for their Radeon 8500/8500LE cards. Like NVIDIA's drivers, ATI's are binary-only. I'm sure Stallman and his cronies will get their undies in a bundle about that. Unlike NVIDIA's, ATI's are only available in RPM format. I'm waiting for a site to post benchmarks comparing these drivers to the open source ones as well as to NVIDIA's. Now they just have to get ones supporting the 9700 before DOOM III comes out. Thanks Linux Games.
