(Get the code!)
Hi !
I've just tested Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope) Alpha 4 and the X works fine with my ATI Radeon HD 2600 and the free RadeonHD driver (but don't allow 3D hardware acceleration yet). I think the next realease of Ubuntu will be OK for RadeonHD, we just have to wait or install the alpha for the most impatients ones.
About Ubuntu 8.10 (Intrepid Ibex), the only solution I found to get a GUI is to install the proprietary FGLRX driver (which is buggy and... proprietary). You can install it with apt or with the installer from ATI's website.
Good bye and good luck.
