    wtf

    Did the companys who used this this patentend softwarestuff (such community destroying patents are forbidden in the eu), "software patents" or "math patents" or stuff like that, so quake4 uses this stuff, are they then even able to release it opensource which should be happen this year?

    You americans should make a (small) revolution to reistate democracy, so that maybe not all people in the world hates you. Sorry If I go a bit to far, but hate such bullshit, and I come in a age where I loose patience that the world changes its direction to a good point instead to the abyss.

      Yeah, everybody is getting sick of the US's anti-freedom policies.

        Ah the goodness hits again!
        Thanks to the devs. I hope to see USE flags and updates for libs in gentoo soon.
        I guess this decision to leave it to the user after all should be quite a good solution though having it directly inside mesa wouldn't be bad.

        But maybe some day that patent issue will be cleared somehow.
        Stop TCPA, stupid software patents and corrupt politicians!

          "Anti-freedom" or "anti/pro-whatever" the US is where the money are in the computer business. Like it or not many of the big foss supporting companies are based there, make money there and have to follow the rules and stuff. And i don't believe this will change.

            Cool. Another nail in the coffin of fglrx hehe R600g can almost run Bioshock now, but I guess not all formats are supported yet as it bails out with an assertion failure on PIPE_FORMAT_DXT1_SRGBA.

              Please fill a bug report. This should be easy to spot.

                      you need also last drm-radeon-testing kernel.

                      It's not working 100% perfect on my rv620 for the moment (color problem or bad texture), but now i can launch enemy territory:quakewars and quake4 !
