RadeonHD Video Driver is an open source driver for AMD GPG r5xx/r6xx chipsets.

The radeonhd driver, or xf86-video-radeonhd is an X.org video driver for R500 and newer ATI graphics devices.

It is being developed by Novell for AMD, with the free documentation provided by AMD.

The driver supports full modesetting, which is backwards compatible to RandR 1.2. But the driver still lacks more advanced features like 2D, 3D and video acceleration as the information for such an implementation hasn't been made available yet.

What's New in This Release:

� Added support for RV620, RV635, and R680. � Added 2D acceleration for R5xx (including RS6xx), both XAA and EXA. � Added support for DDIA block (second digital output) on RS690. � Added support for interlaced modes � Added additional layers for splitting outputs into encoders and transmitters as needed for new hardware. � Added support for DragonFly BSD. � Improved RandR corner cases. � Improved handling of secondary cards. � Implemented foundation work for future TV support. � Huge number of bugfixes and minor updates.
