Benefits of the radeon driver (for my card, don't know about others): - KMS (would look nicer if opensuse uses plymouth); - Better 3D support; - Faster video; - HDTV support with sound (has a bug that sound only outputs on one connector, but works) Compiz works nicely :) With the radeonhd driver, video is very slow, no KMS, no 3D, Compiz does not work, wrong resolution is detected. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/309697

I had to remove the package to start using radeon. #3: Nelson Marques (ketheriel) (2010-11-09 22:30:19) I've made a test build (not polished and with Fedora patch level), and it does work flawlessly. Anyway, this is just for plymouth integration testing, but I would strongly recommend that ATI radeon driver (or however it's called) to be available. On my system (RV710/RV730) it does outperform radeonhd. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/309697
