Does Linux even have proper GPU acceleration under these CPU architectures?

My impression was that support on non-x86 lagged a bit in bug fixing but there are devs working on it (and keeping it working) and from the questions those devs have been asking on IRC the core support does seem to be there. That said, most of the discussion I have seen relates to PPC first, Alpha second, with not much about Sparc so my guess is that the "workingness" varies in that order as well (ie better on PPC than Sparc).
