Mailinglist Archive: radeonhd (265 mails)

["Rob Walsh" <outlawdrake@xxxxxxxxx>]

I recently bought a (relatively inexpensive) ASUS ATI card, and it
appears to lack support in the radeonhd driver.  (I have been able to
use the binary drivers from ATI, but poor 2D acceleration is driving
me nuts.)

I'm running Ubuntu 'intrepid' / 8.10, and trying the radeonhd driver
version 1.2.1-2build2 that they provide.  While that version is
indicated to support RV620 / Radeon HD 3450, the PCI ID of this card
is not in the supported list
(/usr/share/xserver-xorg/pci/radeonhd.ids) --  the IDs immediately
sequentially before and after this one are there, and manually adding
the ID doesn't work (though that was a long shot).

Is there some known issue with this card, or is there something I can
do to enable a workaround?  (I have searched google (generally), the
mailing list archives, and bugzilla to no avail.)
