Bug Description
I have a laptop with :
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: ATI Technologies Inc M22 [Mobility Radeon X300] [1002:5460]
With Hardy, jockey always recommend to install fglrx driver to make that graphic card working, but with intrepid, I only get a empty list and "No proprietary drivers are in use on this system." like a computer which uses a intel graphic card.

Oh... this might actually not be a real bug, opensource drivers for this graphic card seems to have improved since Hardy. Direct rendering was already good and now 3D even works very great!
The opensource driver is still blacklisted by compiz so desktop effects cannot be enabled, but the driver itself seems better than fglrx. More stable, no video output problems and good 3D performances.
