Hi all and a question

Hi list,

i recently decided to have a closer look at the ati specs and
ati-driver.
Since i havent done any low level gfx card coding for over 10 years i
got some stupid newb questions.

The recently released amd specs use the description [somevar]:offset to
describe the address for registers while radeon_reg.h uses the 0xoffset
description. Where can the numerical values for [somevar] be found?

Also, how it is possible for 32bit registers to have adjacent offsets?
>From the specs, e.g. MCIND:0x4 and MCIND:0x5 ?
Not that the description for MC_FB_LOCATION seems to make any sense to
me.

Thanks,

Syren
