There's an open-source driver for the r5xx stuff called the avivo driver [1]. It's still pretty rough, so I haven't packaged it yet. For anyone interested, it should be pretty easy to make an ebuild for it based on the xf86-video-ati ebuild and the git eclass. For the present, je_fro's picked up ati-drivers and anarchy's been sending changes for some of the newest stuff. Thanks, Donnie 1. http://gitweb.freedesktop.org/?p=3Davivo/xf86-video-avivo.git;a=3Dsummary --Sig_+ne2JVkTjuyDVuTRNU3k=0N Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=signature.asc -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.4 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFGsm8QXVaO67S1rtsRAoP/AJ9vgsVOXrRTDuzkgo5XG2xj+p8OdgCdF2eH fE5sfik7rzVVhAFsUOjbaVE= =pMxV -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Sig_+ne2JVkTjuyDVuTRNU3k=0N-- -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
