If the open source drivers (including OpenGL) work with that
card (Radeon X300 SE (RV370)) I'd be more than happy to use them.

When I first installed this machine over a year ago (Ubuntu Breezy),
the ATI drivers didn't even recognise this card.

Actually, I found some more info. From Xorg.0.log :

I'm running a stock Ubuntu Dapper kernel linux-image-2.6.15-27-686 but there 
doesn't seem to be a corresponding  linux-restricted-modules-2.6.15-27-686.
Instead I have a 2.6.15-22-686 and 2.6.15-23-686.

system libraries for a particularly ambitious implementation of 
this technique."
