If GL_VERSION says 2.0, then it support 2.0 and nothing else. Some stuff may be supported only in software though. There's no way to query hardware support in OpenGL. That's by design, you're not supposed to care HOW it's done, only WHAT is done. In practice however, you often care. Your best bet is to go by the unofficial convention among the IHVs that you only expose extensions that can be hardware accelerated. So check the extension string instead of the GL version. But there are still no guarantees, and you may miss hardware features that's not exposed as extensions, such as NPOTs that we support in hardware but not 100% of the functionality of POTs.
We support the 1.10 version of GLSL, and none of our cards support vertex texturing.

I confirm. I have the 71.89 drivers, and the current OpenGL version is 1.5.3, not 2.x

In Linux it's stuck on 1.3 due to limitations in the ABI. I'm not an expert on the subject, but I think that's out of ATI's control.
