rv670 is what I'm testing on... I tried to put a few details in the
commit message.
Basically, for R600+ you have to force DRI on for the moment. You
should also be using exa.
So, right now, I'm using radeonhd from git master, with :
Driver "radeonhd"
VendorName "ATI Technologies Inc"
BoardName "RV670PRO [Radeon HD 3850]"
BusID "PCI:1:0:0"
Option "DRI"
Option "AccelMethod" "EXA"
Option "Audio"
