Hey there!
I've been a little busy in the last few months, and haven't been keeping in the loop here on the phoronix forums.
I know a few months ago there was a lot of activity (work) on the open source ATI Radeon driver for all of those "legacy" cards.
I myself in particular have the ATI Radeon X1950 Pro (rv570 chip).
Currently running:
* Ubuntu Jaunty 9.04 2.6.28-13-server
* xserver-xorg-video-radeon 1:6.12.1-0ubuntu2
I've got dual monitors w/ compiz running great. But I'm wondering if anyone has any information (rumors) when the Radeon driver will include 3D acceleration support for my card?
Is there a place I can go to see the current "status" for the driver? Also, I realize I'm only running the "stable" packages from Ubuntu, so perhaps there's a later stable driver PPA I can add to get the latest stable releases from the developers?
Also, where do we go to report bugs against the driver?
Thanks!
