Phoronix News: Avivo R500 Driver Changes

Yesterday we told you that the Avivo 0.1 driver will be out shortly, and in the past 24 hours now we have seen a number of commits to the Avivo git. There have been eight commits in the past day that range from adding a number of new PCI IDs, removing the FB manager, cleaning up the initialization code, and properly using the Avivo scaler. In total there are now 68 ATI Radeon X100 "R500" GPUs supported...

glisse mentioned on irc that releasing 0.1 in a matter of a couple of days now. wonder what will get into the driver in in the meantime.

i wish i could code in c. i'd love to help :/

don't you get the impression that avivo is progressing quite smoothly? i was expecting way slower development. maybe reverse engineering ati cards isn't that hard after all.

yoshi, Avivo can't do 3D, video acceleration, AIGLX and has some bugs. Also, they are working for some months now on it. But on the other side it has great 2D acceleration and RandR 1.2 Support.

Btw. who cares if he releases 0.1, at this state of the driver everyone will most likely get the newest version from git. But in some months releases are important, so for example Fedora 8 can install the avivo driver by default as an option.

i know.

but 2d acceleration isn't there yet, is it?

Yay! 1680x1050 resolution, although DPMS doesn't seem able to turn the backlight off yet.

How did you change the resolution? I tried adding modelines, xrandr to change and some more. It always crashes X for me.

DDC configured the X server's resolution correctly automatically.

[d2kx]

avivo from git has 5 new paches but I don't know exactly what they really change. But I think version 0.1 is coming really soon now.

they are to debug a problem; and attempt to fix why it doesn't work for somebody who reported back with that problem.

relating to i2c bus not being initialized correctly.

should make the eventual release more stable...

I hope we are not pressuring the developers too much by dissecting every git commit.
It will be done when it's done. I do however want it, gimme gimme gimme =D
