I use a rv250 ati radeon 9000 pro and it still works fine with 3d games under Windows xp i. e. counterstrike source, wow and others.
The opensource radeon driver in ubuntu feisty works fine too, has all funktionality, but the rolauncher doesn't accept it: Card too old, update drivers and other nonsense.
Please, if you support linux, please support open source drivers too. Probably, it is only a controlfile, that has to be updated or completed and the game will run ootb. Or do graphic card producers pay you money for making cards older than 5 years unsupported?
