There are drivers in development at http://r300.sf.net .
Currently (02/28/05) the status is as follows:
* drivers are stable on some machines but not on others, perhaps
depending on a card's PCI id (the code has been run on various
revisions of r3xx/r4xx cards)
* not all features are working yet, for example stencil and
multitexturing are broken.
* in those instances when the driver is stable the performance
is reasonable, you can play Quake and some other games,
glxgears gives around 1000 fps with, AFAIK, correct display.
Everyone is welcome to join the project :)
