Hello,
Christian Meyer <c2h5oh at web.de> (13/06/2012):
> So: Please add a list of 3D supported video-cards[1] in the package description
> or, at least change the description to something like: "xserver-xorg-video-
> radeon is the recommended driver, which works for most cards. Please try the
> proprietary and unsupported ATI 'fglrx-driver' if xserver-xorg-video-radeon
> does not work."
here's the new description:

following chips should be supported: R100, RV100, RS100, RV200, RS200,

This package is built from the X.org xf86-video-ati driver module.
I'm pretty sure the previous one wasn't praising fglrx, but I hear your
point and your joyless experience.
Mraw,
KiBi.
