RadeonHD Driver Gets HDMI Support
,----[ Quote ]
| The xf86-video-radeonhd driver has today received support to handle HDMI
| (High Definition Media Interface) connectors. While if you've used a DVI to
| HDMI dongle with the RadeonHD driver it would have worked already (as we
| shared in our recent ATI HDMI Linux article) this support is for those with
| integrated connectors.

| Whether you are using a Radeon X300 purchased a few years ago or the Radeon
| X1950PRO, the 8.41 driver is noticeably faster. How much faster? In many
| cases it is about 50% faster while in some configurations it may go as high
| as 90% or more. In fact, in some benchmarks the Mobility Radeon X300 was over
| 10x faster!
