I use Radeon 9000s here with no problem. Be sure you are using the
"Radeon" driver and not the "ATI" driver.

You may need a 2.6 series kernel for this.

I am using Debian testing with a 2.6 kernel.

I'm not sure about the "framebuffer" stuff, since I am not entirely sure
what it is, but I can play 3d Open GL games on my Radeon cards without any
difficulties.

Radeon 9000s work with the native open source drivers provided with the
2.6 kernel, and I was advised are the best cards available for Linux.

Regards,

Mark.
