Assumed the OP needs the proprietary driver, then the OP needs to buy a
new ATI card after a few upgrades of X. ATI does not maintain drivers
for their cards for all versions of X. This is an issue for ATI cards,
not for NVIDIA cards. When using the open source driver, there are no
issues, neither for ATI, nor for NVIDIA.
