I believe I was a little bit unlucky. I followed all steps found at
the wiki to install ati drivers, and after that, my system simply
freezes whenever I try to run anything that uses 3D accel. The only
choice I have is to use MesaGL drivers. For instance, my computer is a
Toshiba Satellite A70 with Radeon Mobility 9100, and I'm using Ubuntu
Hoary.
