| 4827 | 3 | 2004-08-22 04:15:17 | Anonymous dropped us a note about a new petition asking for better Linux drivers: <ul><i>"A new petition that may be interesting for Linux gamers has started at petitiononline.com. It demands better Linux driver support by ATI, especially for recent chipsets, including mobile chips.<br> Ati's driver support for Linux at the moment is better than the years before, but the driver performance is far beyond the windows drivers. There is no 64-bit support, yet and the installation isn't as easy as we expect. So John Altobelli set up a petition for all the dissatisfied ati-customers out there. He states, without telling in a roundabout way that the petition-signers won't buy any ATI-video card until the drivers have been improved. As an alternative he points out the publication of specifications, so the open source community can develop drivers on their own.<p> <a href="http://www.petitiononline.com/atipet/petition.html">http://www.petitiononline.com/atipet/petition.html</a>"</i></ul> As of now, the petition has been signed over 4000 times. Enough to make ATI's doorbell ring? | ATI Petition for Adequate Drivers in Linux | default | |
