Hello everyone, |

I just saw something very interesting about kernel 2.6.32: |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
"3D graphics on AMD/ATI's series 2000, 3000 and 4000 Radeon graphics cards. |
| 7 |
Improving 3D graphics support should help improve Linux' standing as a gaming |
| 8 |
platform, among other benefits." |

|
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
"performing mode-setting for graphics card resolution and |
| 12 |
depth mode settings in kernel-space offers advantages over |
| 13 |
user-based mode-setting"[1] |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
Anyone seen any improvements yet? Is it just for the ati-drivers or |
| 16 |
does any of the open source drivers make use of these kernel |
| 17 |
enhancements? |
