nVIDIA 3D drivers + OpenGL for Solaris x64 == Looking Glass on Solaris laptops

The other presentation at the Bay Area OpenSolaris users group this week was a demonstration of Looking Glass running on a Solaris laptop. This demonstration took advantage of the new nVIDIA drivers for the Xorg server on Solaris 10. It was a fantastic demo and I'm so glad to see Looking Glass running on Solaris. This new driver also brings multi head support from a single card and TV out, something that the opensource ATI driver can do but the nVIDIA one can't.

Okay ATI the ball is in your court, I want Looking Glass on my Ferrari 3400 so I need 3D & OpenGL for the Radeon Mobility 9700 as well!

I'm very happy with the new nVIDIA drivers but I need ATI drivers too! Any idea how to arise the pressure?

Is Sun talking to ATI about getting their Radeon drivers ported to Solaris 10 x86?
