Yayz! A long ways off from things being fully supported when they come out, but I'm happy things are working in that direction. Hopefully Gallium will help greatly speed it all up too.

Open-Source ATI Evergreen Acceleration Builds Up
Phoronix: Open-Source ATI Evergreen Acceleration Builds Up
While up to this point AMD has only cleared Evergreen shader documents for release to the general public, the developers at AMD responsible for working on the open-source support have been working on some code too for this Radeon HD 5000 series support. The Linux 2.6.34 kernel has kernel mode-setting (KMS) support for the ATI Radeon HD 5000 series graphics cards, but it goes without any 2D/3D/X-Video acceleration support. There's also DDX Evergreen support allowing these "R800" class GPUs to work with user-space mode-setting. That's really been the extent of the open-source support though for these graphics cards that are a few months old...
