ATI's drivers are all written by 3rd party OSS developers. You would be best
off talking to the XFree people about what drivers are available for what
hardware, ATI just provides specs. The same is true for OpenGL/DRI support,
its all done by 3rd party developers, at best all ATI can tell you is that
they have been told that a driver exists. My experience is that the ATI site
is totally out of date, but there are links there to where you need to go to
get some answers.
