Do you host any of the patches publicly right now? I'd be more than happy to test them out and see how well they work with my RS690. Right now my GPU is unusable for EXA or DRI using xf86-video-ati (intermittently works) or xf86-video-radeonhd (never works, displays artifacts, then screeches to a halt). I was more active in getting things tested for the radeonhd, ati, and rnoland's patches until about halfway through June. Since then, the Day Job and a move back to Cincinnati have both occupied my ever decreasing amount of spare time. --=20 Coleman Kane --=-9LDdir5eXHqNx4f1MQyv Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (FreeBSD) iEYEABECAAYFAkillZEACgkQcMSxQcXat5cgVwCeOSypBoVmfpXOaCoCPlOIPmC/ y0IAoIPUZQFBV4aluj1kcb8CqLZ5Q1C3 =b8VZ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-9LDdir5eXHqNx4f1MQyv--
