R5xx mesa still has some issues with textures. you can follow the

The commit messages state 'r5xx/r500' in the subject line - but as they
still live in the r300 directory, I assume that the driver is still
called "r300", right?


Same driver for r3xx/r4xx/r5xx as most of the hw is the same. We're
just adding new functionality to the r300 driver.

Also I wonder why r500_fragprog.c is almost a complete rewrite of
r300_fragprog.c - while some of the work done there could be helpful for
r300 as well (CMP instead of MAD as MOV replacement) or for r400
(SIN/COS implemented natively).

Mostly it's just separated out since the r5xx FP setup and format is
different. There are probably some optimizations for r3xx/r4xx that
could be implemented as well now that we have docs.
