If you care about 3D, don't use the Sandy Bridge or Bulldozer on-die GPUs. Get

product line nowdays.
No, mostly just nvidia. For AMD/ATI we currently only just pass through the
open source 2D driver, without the support provided by the DRI driver in other
OS'es for Kernel Modesetting (KMS) or hardware acceleration
Thanks for the correction, Alan.
I had thought we'd added support for KMS, but, obviously, you know
better than I.
