I think if you want the official driver, your approach seems fine.
I need 3D with
Pd/GEM, AVSynthesis, and some other OpenGL-based stuff.
Trust me, folks, as soon as the ATI stuff is fully supported by
open-source drivers capable of accelerated 3D then I'll get one of their
cards. Until then, I need to stick with the nVidia drivers.
