I've managed to get managed DRI acceleration on my ATI X800XL
PCI-Express. These are supported by the most recent Xorg and kernel.
I've had success with Xorg 7.0 (using EXA) and the newest 2.6.18-rc4
kernel. Mind you, performance is still quite pathetic, getting a tiny
fraction of what you might expect out of a fancy fairly recent card. 2D
speed is quite fast, but not as good as the closed source nvidia drivers.
It will be nice to seed how the Xorg radeon driver matures for the X800
cards.
later,
Steve
