Revenge 1.0 For Reverse Engineering

Written by Michael Larabel in AMD on 5 November 2007 at 01:47 PM EST. 3 Comments

Previously we reported on the Revenge utility being developed by Oliver McFadden for reverse-engineering the ATI fglrx binary display driver. Today marks the first release of the Revenge utility as it has reached version 1.0. This isn't a bug free release but Oliver hopes it will ship with some distributions to help in the reverse-engineering process and turn more Linux users to free software drivers. As you may recall from an earlier news post, Oliver McFadden is also working on developing an open-source video BIOS for at least one ATI graphics card.
