And yeah, I was asking about the state of the open source drivers, since ATI doesn't seem to want to fix it anytime soon. From what I remember, the R600 3D documents should have been handed in by now, right?

Comments like this are at best childish and most likely offensive to someone. I know/hope you're directing this at 'Novell' as a corporate entity and not the individuals who might work on the open drivers in your proposed grand scheme of ATI openness but if you want people to see things your way you might try to take the high road and focus on the facts and issues rather than resorting to statements like that.
And by the way statements like that are --exactly-- what need to be said, and they need to be said directly to Novell by ATi right now. Today. And that is putting it mildly to say the very least.

Again, thanks for totally derailing this thread when there are plenty of others about the subject you guys are discussing.
Now that you guys are getting personal and basically just attacking each other, it'd be a good time to drop it in this thread and move it into a new one before you get this one deleted.

Tell Novell to find one and sit on it, then once it's tightly entrenched in there ass, have them spin around on it over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over.......
