xorg-edgers for lucid is under construction, please just wait until we open it for general consumption

OOps! I've been drinking water from that pipe "under construction" for a couple of days already ... Silly me ... Is there a medicine ... ? Please keep the good work, constructing it, on. I'll wait ...

Give us a wink when the construction is finished.

Thanks for your early feedback anyway and for smoketesting the first builds before we got a chance to do it ourselves Spotted a few things there which saved me from some trial and error.

Thanks to Sarvatt's hard day's night of uploading we can now turn open the firehose again! A normal apt-get dist-upgrade should do the job. Only all the less-used drivers which we haven't bothered to rebuild for 1.8 yet will be removed.

I'll try it right now and report if any errors occur.
Update: It worked! I've got my screen back after reboot (not needed, I just wanted to be sure ...) Thank You!

Tonight's upgrades of mesa and xorg-xserver-video-ati are great! It almost doubled the speed in KMS and it's fast without it as it was not in near past ... Great!

[zika]

After today's upgrade KMS is as fast as non-KMS (2.6.32-6.8 is running, for the fist time, KMS as a default). Great!

How are you measuring the improvement?

Thank You very much! Second URL have those file already assembled and I've put them in /lib/firmware/radeon (after creating radeon folder)... Error is now gone ...
Update:Error is gone but the graphics became very erratic at boot. I removed that folder, got the error again but very stable and fast graphics with 2.6.32-999 is back.
