	SETI@Home does not have an ATi application yet. The only one in development I believe is a Windows app. Other projects have ATi applications in use but I do not know which ones have a *nix app to go with it. ____________

	Only Collatz has a Linux ATI app, but it is for 64-bit processors only. For BOINC to recognize the card, it needs to be included in the Video group. ____________
