I must have missed this e-mail about the ati drm hanging (unless, of course, it was originally sent off list), but I just wanted to point out that this is not completely accurate. I have direct rendering working on an AGP x700 with 7.2.0 RC3 and haven't experienced a hang yet. I only see three real issues with the ATI support at the moment: 1) Enabling AIGLX will hang the machine (perhaps this is the hang mentioned above... If that's the case, I'd love to get my hands on the patch mentioned as well). 2) PCIe is not 100% supported most likely due to problems with ati_pcigart.c 3) The linux_dri-devel port is older than I would personally like :-) That's easily worked around if you can compile the drivers on a linux box and copy them over.
