My advice to distributions for such situations is to ship both but make
one driver the default one.  This provides users with better overall
hardware coverage and flexibility.  Additionally by providing the ability
for direct comparison of both drivers it makes driver authors/maintainers
try really hard at making the final solution work for everybody (instead
of just making it work for their needs only etc.).

Best regards,
Bartlomiej
