Back on Thursday, November 29 the
RadeonHD 1.0 driver was released and not even a week later it can now be found inside the Ubuntu 8.04 "Universe" repository. Previously the Ubuntu repository had
RadeonHD 0.0.4. As of this morning,
xserver-xorg-video-radeonhd is at version 1.0. While if you're using the development branch of Ubuntu you're all set, for those using Ubuntu 7.10 are stuck to RadeonHD v0.0.1. If you'd like to share your RadeonHD experiences be sure to stop by the
Open-Source ATI/AMD Forum.
