--- Comment #2 from fossphreak at gmail.com ---
Previously, the video decoder portion of the GPU was not usable through the
open source driver, but recently AMD was able to release patches for the open
source drivers that should now expose this functionality. AFAIK only the Mesa
patches have been merged to mainline, and the kernel patches aren't. You'll
have to grab the code and compile it yourself most likely.

Kernel code based on 3.9 rc:
git://people.freedesktop.org/~deathsimple/linux

Mesa based on 9.1.1 (I think):
git://people.freedesktop.org/~deathsimple/mesa
