I'm quite happy with my Radeon 9100 using the stock Fedora driver.  It 
"just works".  I do a lot of installs, upgrades, etc. on this machine. 
I never even think about the video.  Like I say, it just works.  It's 
zippy enough to handle Return to Castle Wolfenstein at 1280x1024x32 with 
all the eye candy turned on.  The 9100 is actually a better card than 
the 9200, BTW.  ATI's numbering scheme is strange.
