xserver-xorg-video-radeon (1:6.12.192-2) unstable; urgency=low

  * Starting with this version, the radeon driver enables kernel mode setting
    (KMS) by default.  This comes with a framebuffer driver which enables
    native resolution on the console.  KMS also allows faster VT switching
    and mode changes.

    Enabling KMS may break X.org drivers that are not KMS-ready, for instance
    radeonhd or vesa.

    In case of trouble KMS can be disabled with the 'nomodeset' kernel
    command line parameter, or by editing /etc/modprobe.d/radeon-kms.conf.

xserver-xorg-video-radeon (1:6.12.2-2) unstable; urgency=low

  * The standard linux kernels in Debian as of version 2.6.29-1 do not contain
    the firmware necessary to allow the radeon driver to use 3D acceleration
    via DRI. In addition, the driver will pay significant performance
    penalties for 2D and Xvideo usage when the firmware is absent. This
    firmware has been moved to the firmware-linux package in non-free, and
    must be installed to use this feature.

xserver-xorg-video-ati (1:6.8.1~git20080302.a4398ac3-1) experimental; urgency=low

  * The 'ati' Xorg driver module does not contain the 'r128' and 'mach64'
    submodules anymore. Users of Rage or Mach boards may safely remove
    the xserver-xorg-video-ati packages only if they use Driver "r128" or
    "mach64" instead of "ati" in their /etc/X11/xorg.conf.

xserver-xorg-video-ati (1:6.7.197-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * The X.Org ATI driver supports RandR 1.2 which enables dynamic
    enabling, disabling, resizing, rotating, placing, ... of multiple
    outputs at runtime. You might want to update your /etc/X11/xorg.conf
    accordingly. See http://wiki.debian.org/XStrikeForce/HowToRandR12
    and http://www.intellinuxgraphics.org/dualhead.html for some help.
