Now this is confirmed in debian sid too. And as soon as the 1.3 xserver-xorg-core drifts into Debian testing, ATI will have achieved the remarkable result of having NO drivers that work in new Linux systems like Debian or Fedora. And for users of newer cards unsupported by xorg ati or radeon drivers, they now have no real driver to run at all. I hope somebody at AMD can figure out just why ATI is doing this and solve the problem, very shortly ATI will become a total pariah in the Linux community, even worse than it currently is.
I believe that Ubuntu solved this issue by recompiling their xorg parts to show the 7.x numbering.
This is really impressive, if there was any doubt at all that ATI is completely either unwilling or unable to serve Linux users, it is now completely removed.
