After digging for information regarding audio support on G210/GT220 cards i found myself within a fanboy war (once again)... and read this:




Well - beside performance, features (and maybe...

Well thats not quite right... noone would be frustrated if the opensource driver from ati would be an opensource project. as far at it seems it is still a closed development with publishing the...

Its pretty easy... just release the source of the blob
:D

That doesnt change the fact that the market wont grow without good drivers because possible users are scared away cause of driver problems.

Linux _could_ have a 10x grow rate if there where good...

Regarding the "soon":

monthly releases are fine but short feature driven releases are better. really. yes i am a software developer.

Try to set your targets from 2-6 weeks and everything will...

Well as someone else already noted some applications just need xv to work. There are some video players that needs it because they lack opengl support. etc.

I don't think that it is this or that. I think that linux is what we all make it to.

Following Ubuntu it could become a replacement for windows.

Personally i am following gentoo. "its about...

Well i will just wait and see what will happen. It doesn't seem that discussing stuff here would change anything.

The bridge watching over this forum is pretty picky who may travel along. Of...

Personally ... i wouldn't care if they implement it in software and emulate the xv interface. That would help a lot of people. Just as a filler of course..

Todays CPUs (btw. a AMD 5600+ for me ;)...

Just for the books. If there is a proper oss driver it shouldnt be a problem for new platforms. But just for the records: its not very likely that this will happen in the next 5+ years - after apple...

Okay. Something you should change quick. Try it by publishing a nice oss(or even closed) driver :P


Well. Try to be a market leader and not a follower, your opensource ambitions are a great step...

I dont think that they need support many more platforms as there are not really any other platforms supporting PCIe and are used by endusers. New AGP cards are, even on windows, not supported by ati...

Everybody is asking for a bugfree driver. Tomorrow please.

That this is not realistic doesnt matter for most of them.

Anyways:

What will help everyone would be a more open information...

I have so many questions... but well:

Could you please create a blog about what you are doing? And please a blog with more then one post/week.

OR

Release a roadmap and a complete changelist...

I will check that out today.

That wont help me because

a) i dont even know if my card works with that driver

b) the opengl memleak is too big

Hi!

I got my first ATI card and i am pretty pleased (fast driver installation etc.) but there is one great problem:

Every 5-10 Seconds the screen freezes for 400-800ms. It does not matter if i...
