Ok, since it is hard right now to get a HD5850 anyway I guess I have to wait until at least digital output is working (digital out and dual monitor support i need at least). Is there a place where I could "monitor" if the drivers gets updated with rv8xx support? http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver/xf86-video-radeonhd There? Or would it be a "patchset" at first anyway so it won't pop up there? -- Oliver Lehmann http://www.pofo.de/ http://wishlist.ans-netz.de/
