ATI Catalyst 10.5 Comes with Support for SLED/SLES 11 SP1 

,----[ Quote ]
| The latest ATI graphics drivers are here to 
| satisfy the needs of the Linux gamers out 
| there. ATI Catalyst 10.5 comes with 
| preliminary support for SUSE Linux Enterprise 
| Desktop and Server 11 Service Pack 1. It also 
| fixes quite a lot of Linux-specific issues and 
| bugs. Other than that, itâs just a regular 
| evolutionary update, nothing to write home 
| about.

Initial Open ATI Evergreen Support By FOSDEM?

,----[ Quote ]
| Hopefully the Evergreen support with mode-
| setting and ShadowFB support will be here by
| FOSDEM on the 6th of February, but it will
| still be longer before there is real 2D
| acceleration (EXA) or any 3D acceleration
| within the open-source stack.

R600/700 Mesa Driver Picks Up Blit Support

,----[ Quote ]
| While a blitter module was introduced for
| Gallium3D that uses the 3D engine for
| blitting, this doesn't help those without blit
| support that are still running the "classic"
| Mesa driver stack. Over the night, however,
| blit support has arrived for the ATI R600/700
| Mesa driver. This support arrived in the form
| of three commits (1, 2, 3) that increase the
| driver's code-base by around 2,000 lines of
| code.
