Later nvidia cards are digitally handcuffed (the fans won't spin up unless you load proprietary software that passes a signature check), but it seems they still work if you are happy with idle clocks.
Meanwhile AMD and ATI cards do not have free VBIOS init and the only free driver available does not support 3D acceleration or ACPI S3.
There does also exist a fully free driver for Intel Integrated for the GNUbootable Thinkpads, but such integrated graphics only have so much performance (the performance was quite good at the time for a laptop GPU).
There is also a free driver for ASpeed server GPUs, but only textmode init currently exists for fully-free init.
