There's good news for those of you wanting to quickly go out and pickup an AMD Fusion system as soon as it's available: there's already open-source drivers for Fusion.

AMD's Alex Deucher has now confirmed that there are open-source graphics drivers for Fusion on Linux already in existence, but they're just waiting for them to be approved for release. Alex (a.k.a. agd5f) mentioned this in our forums. "Open drivers are already written, just waiting for final approval to release."

Nice, if you're interesting in budget/mobile performance. Fusion is AMD's answer to Intels' on-board GPU. Not for the performance crowd in other words. But it'll open up for better battery times I guess.
