They are providing docs and code (linux code) and I have a decent relationship with the Intel graphics devs. ATI/AMD has also become much more friendly and r500 and below should work fairly well. r600+ is still under development. Interestingly enough, VIA just released docs on some of their chips as well. I have it on my list to work on, but I don't yet have hardware to work with. robert. > --Artem > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-current_at_freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-current-unsubscribe_at_freebsd.org"
