Wow. That is kind of bad. I love to play older games regularly, and had high hopes, because amd provides more and more linux support. But this is kind of a dealbreaker for me. Just wait what happens if reddit and the news get wind of this. i mean it will not be EA kind of bad, but it will surely be bad.

only if the reply is and will be the official position.

Given how bad AMD's Linux drivers were not too long ago. It will take years of very high quality before I trust them again.

I've been waiting for ATI to start having good drivers since 2003. What's weird is that even after being bought by AMD they still haven't turned around. That is to say, if I were you, I wouldn't hold my breath. You'd be more likely to see the open-source drivers for AMD hardware catch up in performance to nVidia's.

same here, and the counter just reset
