XFree86 4.1.x ATI Radeon support?
Hi,
I am looking for a video card for the new Linux only computer. I
noticed that /usr/doc/xserver-xfree86/README.ati on my current Woody
installations (xserver-xfree86 4.1.0-14) says
--> The newer Rage 128 and Radeon chips are not yet supported by
--> this driver. Rage 128's and Radeon's are, however, supported
--> by separate drivers, and own- ers of such adapters should
--> consult the documentation provided with these drivers. This
--> driver will also invoke the appropriate driver if it finds
--> Rage 128 and/or Radeon adapter(s) in the system."
But the status document in the same directory states:
--> 4.1.0: Accelerated support is provided for Mach64, Rage, Rage
--> 128 and Radeon chips. Unaccelerated support is provided for
--> all of the others except the Mach8 and some early Mach32 chips
--> by the "ati" driver.
So, can I get myself a Radeon card?
Cheers!
Shyamal
