  Actually, there was a thread here some time ago where some people
mentioned the level of FLOSS of the X drivers.
  Can someone repeat those details or recall the approximate subject, or
time or some other detail which will enable me to look for that message
in the archive? I think that it was mentioned there that some vendors
have FLOSS drivers that don't fully utilize the hardware while vendors
who used to have a fully FLOSS drivers are no longer in business.
