Radeon Driver Rewrite Only Has A Few Things Left

,----[ Quote ]
| David Airlie shares on his blog that he has been working on getting the 
| rewritten ATI driver branch into a useful state and recently has been 
| focusing on the FBO support under a DRI2 and kernel mode-setting enabled 
| environment. Today he has reached a point where the Frame Buffer Object 
| support has been merged into the radeon-rewrite branch.

RadeonHD Driver Adds RV710/730 Support

,----[ Quote ]
| The open-source drivers would only work with the ATI RV710/730 GPUs when
| using an analog D-Sub interface. Novell's Egbert Eich though has committed
| changes to the RadeonHD driver that should introduce proper mode-setting
| support for these new ATI GPUs. Changes had to be made to the driver to
| support DCE 3.2 on these newer graphics cards as well as changes to support
| AtomBIOS.
