Re: [Xpert]Radeon 9000 Pro support

2002-10-28 Thread Ani Joshi
The Radeon 9000 Pro is supported in current CVS right now (and the 'mac' 9000 pro support will be in soon, before 4.3.0). The 9000 Pro uses the same 3D engine as the r200, so in theory the ATI firegl might work and the DRI r200 branch should work also, with minor changes allowing the card's ID.

If this Diamond card is a PC card (a card with PC VGA BIOS and not mac OpenFirmware ROM), then you cannot use this in your Mac. Your firmware will not know how to enable the card so no matter what XFree86 does, it will fail to initialize the card because it was never POST(ed). The Mac does not
