both stable and unstable releases. The unstable driver can now
coexist with the stable driver, and will not be picked up by default.
ati-xfree86-bin: Reverted from 8.40.4 to 8.38.6: 8.40.4 is unstable
and can cause machine lockups and shouldn't be the default.
ati-xfree86-bin-init: removed, and merged initati functionality into
ati-xfree86-bin-unstable
ati-xfree86-bin-unstable: This packages the 8.40.4 driver. This package
provides initiati, which uses the stable driver to initialize the card
and thus depends on ati-xfree86-bin.

To use the driver you will need to:
|
|
|
|
(1) Add at least a device section to your XF86Config similar to the
|
|
example in ${PREFIX}/share/examples/${PKGBASE}/XF86Config.example
|
|
Please be sure to add ${PREFIX}/lib/modules to your ModulePath.
|
|
|
|
(2) Symlink ${PREFIX}/etc/ati to /etc/ati. Failure to do so will result
|
|
in a watermark on the lower-right part of the screen saying
|
|
`Testing use only' and `Unsupported hardware'.
|
|
|
|
Note with 8.40.4: this release may not properly initialize some
|
|
cards and may result in a machine hang. One work around is to
|
|
first run `initati' (provided in this package) which will initialize
|
|
the card using an previous release of the driver.
