Well, Intel drivers have supported 3D very good recently (despite
probably the never ending poulsbo-story). ATI drivers are open source
which means we would have to contact the radeon driver developers rather
than a company and it is possible to fix things ourselves (more or
less).

For nvidia, the nouveau driver is still far from stable for 3D and
everybody has to use the binary driver.

That said, of course we should try to also get in touch with the open
source driver developers.
