I've just bought a Dell Inspiron 8500, with an ATI Radeon Mobility 9000,
and it works perfectly with the drm modules from drm.sf.net.
2D&3D acceleration, swsusp and so on.
6083 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1216.600 FPS
I think it could be a nice idea to get the xlibmesa4-drm-src from
penguinppc.org p

I recently bought an entirely new machine with a Radeon 9500 Pro in it.
None of the XFree86 drivers in woody would run on it.

Are these drivers much better then than XFree ones or is there a reason
to be promoting nonfree drivers? I orginally packaged up the nvidia ones
in the way they are done due to the fact the XFree ones had no 3d
acceleration at all and that it was illegal to distribute nvidia's
binaries directly. A

Hi all!
I build two packages converting the RPM provided by ATI for their RADEON
video cards to a binary package with the XFree module, libGL and some
tools and a source package for building a kernel module with make-kpkg.
These packages are very simila
