Well, get rid of proprietary drivers is what the open source community wants ... Sigh.
Who doesn't?
After a few years of trying ot enforce this, how about winning by numbers? for a change, first we gain the market share that we deserve. _then_ we can enforce things.
So ignore legal problems before we become big enough?
Hah, no such chance, sorry.

Then provide a working alternative!
The alternative is using OSS drivers or just use graphic card that does have OSS drivers. In case of ATI, novell is working on a OSS driver. If you have an nvidia you can use neauveau, intel provides OSS drivers too. There are plenty of options!
