Oops; I just looked more closely. Not your r500 driver, but I still don't know the full history between that developer & his driver.

The AMD Graphics division hears the Linux community loud and clear. We're not ignoring the problem. As for your blog, I don't know the full history between you and the former ATI business unit regarding your ATI r500 driver, so I'll decline to comment on that for now. Marc J.

The story got picked up by Slashdot. How not surprising, again. If hardware manufacturers, including video card manufacturers, really supported Linux, there would be less problem. I think the ball is in your side now :-) Example #1: http://airlied.livejournal.com/43520.html Hub _______________________________________________ Desktop_architects mailing list [email protected] https://lists.linux-foundation.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop_architects
