If X.Org drivers aren't your thing today, you may be pleased to know that there is looking to be a good implementation of Microsoft's Silverlight for Linux. Silverlight 1.0 was released today, but it was also announced that Microsoft has partnered with Novell to deliver Moonlight, which will be a Silverlight-compatible run-time implementation for Linux. Microsoft will also be delivering Silverlight Media Codecs for Linux. Novell's Moonlight will support both JavaScript and the .NET programming model inside FireFox, Konqueror, and Opera.
