airliedand that via drm patch was being sent upstream when? :-)03:36
airliedmaybe it is upstream...and bypassed me..03:37
airliedah it came from CVS in my last merge..03:38
airliedyou guys should really try and ship the latest DRM with dapper.. 03:38

fabbionehi airlied 08:18
airliedhey fabbione 08:19
fabbioneairlied: that can be problematic given the kernel is almost frozen08:19
fabbioneairlied: somebody as been asking for some x800 love in the ati driver...08:19
fabbionei was wondering how badly intrusive are your patches in trunk08:19
fabbioneand if it is worth to pull them in ati-1.0-stable branch08:20
airliedfabbione: the x800 should work in stable..08:20
fabbioneok!08:20
fabbionei will ask that ranter to try again08:20
airliedfabbione: it might be missing PCI ids..08:20
airliedbut I don't think so ...08:20
fabbionei can check that and let you know08:20
airliedfabbione: the drm is part of X that  lives in the kernel :-)08:21
airliednot part of the kernel :[-P08:21
fabbioneairlied: eh i know that.. 08:21
airliedso we can fix up the DRM even if the 'kernel' is frozen :-P08:22
airliedI'm not sure if your drm has benh's fixes in it..08:22
fabbionei wish everybody could understand that08:22
airliedI really wouldn't release anything without them..08:22
airliedthey sorta go hand in hand with the stable driver fixes..08:23
fabbioneon one side i am not that worried, because a 3 years kernel support will get updates08:23
fabbionethere is nothing you can do about it08:23
airliedtrue..08:23
fabbioneso if it is not right now that we are close to release, it might be a bit later08:24
fabbioneairlied: sorry it was an x180008:33
fabbionemy bad08:33
airliedah I've got code for the x1800, just not allowed release it yet..08:34
airliedwell its for the X1300, but it shouldn't be a major nightmare toget working..08:34
fabbioneah ok08:35
airliedunless someone pressures ATI into signing the release I've no idea when I'll release it..08:35
airliedI might do it anyways.. depends on how sueable I feel I want to be..08:35
infinityOh, c'mon.  Show some testicular fortitude.08:48
airliedwell I've asked nicely first.. I'll see how that goes..08:48
infinitySo, I take it this wasn't a magical reverse engineering or registre-poking feat, but you got your hands on some actual specs, hence the legal concerns?08:53
airliedwell I wouldn't call them specs, more a like a register name/number/bits of interest with not textual info ..08:56
airliedbut still a good bit of help from starting at zero..08:57
airliedlike a header file really..08:57
infinityCheck.08:59
