I was scared by the Ubuntu 8.10 Release Notes instruction:
"ATI "fglrx" video support

The ATI video driver in 8.10 drops support for video cards with r300
based chips (the Radeon 9500 - X600 Series of cards). If you have such a
card, please use "Hardware Drivers" at System/Administration to disable
it before the upgrade. Please see bug 284408 for more information "

Is it confirmed that AMD has dropped support for R300 chips or is it just a bug 
in the new Xorg and kernel adaptation in the driver?
I use AMD FGLRX 8.10 driver on Hardy downloaded from AMD website and it works 
without problems on my (desktop) Radeon 9600 (RV350).
I was managing to upgrade to Intrepid in few days.
