[Dri-devel] Q: ATI Radeon 7500/8500

2001-10-16 Thread Christoph Hintermueller

Hi
Due to the fact that i want to get rid of NVIDIA, as i did never manage
to get a driver properly working exept the `nv' from X/DRI, and as ATI
till now seems to be the only HW Vendor willing to coopreate with
Developers not working at the vendors facilities, and as i do only have
one computer for Work and Experimenting:

Does anybody know wether the fairly new ATI Radeon 7500/8500
basically can be used with existing X/DRI Radeon driver??

YES?/sort of?) I was cross reading the 8500 thread in the archive and
wondering wether this died as an highly pilosophical thread about
OS/NDA/... or wether there is allready a ongoing developement
where help is needed at least as (pre)alpha tester??

NO?/sort of?)) :(

I have not seen these cards yet, so I don't know for sure. However, I was
told by ATI that, at least in TV-in/out respects Radeon All-in-Wonder 8500
is similar to existing All-in-Wonders. I would reasonably expect 2d and
overlay to function and, perhaps, even dri although they did have some
chagnes to the graphics pipeline so we can't know for certain until
someone tries ;)

I believe Mike Harris said he has 2D working, but 3D's up in the air...?
