Sorry, it would probably have been clearer if I had said "identify"
instead of "detect". With Xorg 7.2, "Xorg -configure" generates a
configuration file containing this:
Section "Device"
[snip]
Driver "ati"
VendorName "ATI Technologies Inc"
BoardName "RV280 [Radeon 9200 PRO]"
BusID "PCI:1:6:0"
EndSection
With Xorg 7.4 I get this:
Section "Device"
[snip]
Driver "radeon"
VendorName "Unknown Vendor"
BoardName "Unknown Board"
BusID "PCI:1:6:0"
EndSection
So 7.2 identifies my card but 7.4 does not. It doesn't seem to be
causing any problems but maybe it's worth noting anyway?
