Dave Airlie did some work on R500 last year, but he was waiting for
ATI's approval before releasing anything. See
http://airlied.livejournal.com/31180.html . I didn't hear of anything
new about this since then.

On the <R500 front, apart from the upcoming XRandR 1.2 support, there
have been some rs480 fixes recently. IIRC, all boards up-to X850 are
supposed to "work".
