Ok, I updated to r259130 and everything works perfectly now. To sum up, Radeon 5770, DisplayPort, 27" Dell monitor, 2560x1440 resolution. Thanks to everyone involved for your great work. I'll keep periodically updating to latest HEAD and I'll spam the list again if I notice any issues :-) -- Antonis 2013/12/10 Antonis Anastasiadis <anastasiadis@datalive.gr> > Thanks! > > I've compiled today's HEAD (kernel+world) with NEWCONS support and > tried again.
