Hi, all. As you may have seen on the X.org mailing list, I handle Mandriva's graphics card detection database. I'm working on the lists for our upcoming release, and I notice that radeonhd is so far lacking the PCI IDs (and therefore, presumably, detection) for most of the HD 3xxx series. Is this support likely to be added to radeonhd in the near future (couple of weeks or so), or will we have to use vesa / fbdev for these cards? I can provide a list of all the missing IDs, if that would help, but I don't have any of the hardware myself - I'm just going off the fglrx driver's list. Thanks. Also, I found some discrepancies in ATI's own various lists. Does anyone know who at ATI / AMD I can talk to about this? There are some devices listed in fglrx's ID list but not in ATI's official developer reference text file, and several IDs which are listed in the X.org drivers and pciids but not in fglrx (I suspect these IDs are essentially bogus, hardware that never existed or never appeared in the wild). Thanks once more. :) -- adamw -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: radeonhd+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: radeonhd+help@opensuse.org

HD34/6xx support is coming up soon, there is a huge pile of RV620/635 commits here waiting to be pushed up stream :) There have been a rather significant amount of changes to the modesetting side of things. About the ids, yes, we regularly track fglrx for these too :) Thing is, nobody knows whether those ids are out there or not, until someone with such a cards mails in :) Luc Verhaegen.

You can ping our GPU dev support email (gpudriverdevsupport at amd dot com) and we can answer some questions, but as Luc says even we have a tough time knowing whether a partner product actually made it to market or not. It's not uncommon for a board partner to design several different SKUs then make a last minute decision about which ones to build in volume. -----Original Message----- From: Adam Williamson [mailto:awilliamson@mandriva.com] Sent: Wednesday, March 05, 2008 11:05 PM To: radeonhd@opensuse.org Subject: [radeonhd] HD 3xxx series support?

Thanks for the replies, guys. Luc, in that case I'll keep an eye on the git log and bump a snapshot through our version freeze in a couple of weeks (though of course if you could do a tested, bug-free release with perfect 3xxx support in, oh, say a week, that'd be aces ;>). John, I'll get in touch with the address you suggest. -- adamw -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: radeonhd+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: radeonhd+help@opensuse.org
