SOLO e dico SOLO perchè non voglio sputtanare tutto prima del linux day, 
comunque i driver nuovi pare siano fighi, compiz ci gira bene e hanno 
aggiunto il supporto della gestione dei consumi per molte schede. I 
driver precedenti non è che non supportavano le schede, semplicemente 
volevano solo essere un "test" e quindi erano stati rilasciati 
ufficialmente solo per la fascia alta anche se andavano comunque bene su 
tutte le ati.
Se ti va tutto bene fammi un fischio che dopo la 2* presentazione 
installo e configuro :D

Ciao!!
