There are a few but most people are happy with Nvidia(closed source 
drivers) or ATi(open source drivers). Your more likely to have problems 
with your mobo and your video card.

  Apparently upon the beginning of the barrage, the donkey broke 
discipline and panicked, toppling the cart. At that point, the rockets 
disconnected from the timer, leaving them strewn around the street. 
Tethered to the now toppled cart, the donkey was unable to escape before 
the arrival of U.S. troops.
