I don't know what became of the database, but I'm still looking for the ideal graphic card for Ubuntu 3D Accelerated gaming.
I would suggest a web form with lots of drop downs or a menu like the one on ATI driver support to get the card name of the one filling the form, along with YES/NO questions concerning 2D, 3D, Gaming and Compiz. Then the results appear as percentages: 0% = all NO, 100% = all YES, X% = some YES.
I could attempt to create such a form (difficulty is getting existing cards into list).. or leave it to u guys? It would be good if there was a world resource for monthly/yearly hardware compatibility reports, for Ubuntu.. Then buying Cross-OS hardware would be easy.
I just want to switch to Ubuntu permanently..
