Re: [PATCH] radeonfb: add support for newer cards

Is there a list of cards this adds support for?  I'm waiting on support 
for the X1600
This is not supported, neither by radeonfb (patches or not) nor by
X.org. X1xxx cards have a new display engine and ATI refuses to provide
any specs for it.

Note: I wonder how much of that is related to M$ new Vista DRM that
basically forbids video or sound card vendors from providing specs or
doing open source or they get "revoked" and never get to see "HD"
content... 

Ben.
