Bug#502970: EXA for Radeon



Hi,
      Even I need to add Option "AccelMethod" "EXA" to get Xv properly working with compiz on my R520 card when using the radeon (xf86-video-ati) driver. An automated addition to xorg.conf would be welcome.

Regards,
Karthik

Hello,

I'm a happy user of xorg on lenny with the xorg.conf below. I have to
add manually the "AccelMethod" line because rotation didn't worked correctly
which I reported upstream https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18087
and quickly got the respond that I have to add the missing EXA.

To fix the upstream reported bug for Debian for everyone the xorg.conf created
by the xorg packages could add the AccelMethod Option.
This could be done for many drivers which are reported as solid on
http://wiki.x.org/wiki/ExaStatus

Thank you.

Regards.
