they do now, but for several years Intel was the only one that did. and ATI's cooperation (through AMD) is very recent (recent enough that it hasn't had much impact yet)

Recent? IIRC -- a year and half. And you apparently don't have the right distribution, Dave Airlie provided tons and tons of fixes to -ati driver, and people (mainly) from OpenSuSE created -radeonhd using that information. That's pretty big impact in my books.

great, I thought it was about a year and didn't think that the updates had made it in yet. I'm glad to to be wrong about that.
