Becareful with ATI video cards. Such as my ATI Technologies Inc R430 [Radeon X800 XL] and atleast one 9700 http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=122874 There's some issue that prevents 3D from working. It seems to be an interaction with the chipset ( nforce3-250gb ) and ATI video cards specifically. A work-around is to boot into Windows first, which does the necessary initialization, then reboot (not power off) into Linux and then 3D works. This needs to be done once for every power cycle.
