I have the same opinion on ATI, but on windows. I use radeon hd 6630M (switchable graphics), with drivers from 2011, because they never bothered to release an update.

Effect? I'm getting artifacts/BSOD when try to play games. Fortunately I can switch to intel.

Careful about tagging AMD on that. Mobile manufacturers often repackage the drivers and sometimes mess with the device IDs so you're stuck with their release of the drivers.

If it's an entirely stock chipset, any modern Catalyst driver will be able to talk to that card.
