I've had all kinds of problems with ATI proprietary drivers (fglrx),
from missing hardware acceleration to freezing desktop and
awful font rendering. Sometimes both fglrx and fglrx-legacy failed to
install at all. Opensource drivers did the job for me on the older
cards, but they lack support of the new hardware.
I never had any issues with proprietary Nvidia drivers, which is
the reason I didn't use nouveau much.
So if you don't mind using proprietary drivers, I would recommend
sticking with Nvidia.
Best wishes,
Alex
