Signed-off-by: Solomon Peachy <redacted> Newer Radeon graphics cards use a different table layout in their BIOSes, known as 'ATOM'. I've attached a patch (against 2.6.15) which implements the PLL and LVDS parsing out of the ATOM BIOSes, using the current X.org sources as a reference. Notably absent is the code which detects the connectors and TDMS information, but it's of lesser importance at the moment. This code still has quirks, but I'm not sure if those are due to bugs in my patch or incomplete/buggy support for the RV410. So I'd appreciate it if people could try this out, especially if they have a newer ATOM BIOS in their radeon card, and let me know what happens. Finally, this patch also has PCI IDs added for my Radeon Mobility X700 (M26) adapter.
Hi ! What's the status of this patch ? Do you have a new version ? People are heving enough problems with recent cards to justify getting something in soon...
