Phoronix: RadeonHD Weekly Progress Report
As there's been a RadeonHD article at least once a week (from the Ubuntu installation to the Conntest utility) on Phoronix since the RadeonHD driver was introduced, it's almost becoming a weekly progress report here for this official AMD open-source R500 and R600 driver.Last week when talking about the RadeonHD driver there were about 90 commits to its xf86-video-radeonhd git tree the entire week and just today from the Novell developers we have seen 26 commits in the past day. As opposed to commits just adding new ATI R500 and R600 product IDs, most of the committed work today involves fixing bugs that pertain to the identification of bogus table headers, error messages, mismatches, crashes, and other fixes.
