The next version of Ubuntu, Jaunty Jackalope (9.04) has a problem with drivers for most ATI cards. The problem seems to lie in the compatibility with the new version of XServer, version 1.6, with the driver current owner.

So far it has prioritized wishlist so you do not think that since Ubuntu is going to give short-term solution. According to the developers of Ubuntu is ATI which is responsible to update the driver and now propose using the free driver despite not available graphics acceleration.

    2. Already in an earlier version of ubuntu and ati was the same time pulled the driver. I agree it's no problem ubuntu team. Besides the free driver (either) has graphics acceleration, I would say that for most ati cards.
