That's an ISA manual, basically describes which instructions the GPU understands and what effect they have. This is very useful for people who want to write accelerated drivers etc, but not for integration in an operating system. There's probably another manual that describes the registers, initialisation, memory etc. GPU driver development is usually done by Xorg. The Xorg mailinglist is probably a better place to ask. If you do, include more information about your actual hardware. Btw. all the relevant developers are aware that ATI publishes these documents. The real issue is the lack of time or money. If you can help them on that front, that would be great...
