Description-en: X.Org X server -- AMD/ATI display driver wrapper
This package provides the 'ati' driver for the AMD/ATI Mach64, Rage128,
Radeon, FireGL, FireMV, FirePro and FireStream series. This driver is
actually a wrapper that loads one of the 'mach64', 'r128' or 'radeon'
sub-drivers depending on the hardware.
These sub-drivers are brought through package dependencies.
.
Users of Rage, Mach, or Radeon boards may remove this package only if
they use Driver "r128", "mach64", or "radeon" in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
instead of relying on autodetection.
.
More information about X.Org can be found at:
<URL:http://www.X.org>
.
This package is built from the X.org xf86-video-ati driver module.
