If true, that explains why they share same critical issues with respect to SI/Verde. CCing Tom St Denis from AMD whose commits amdgpu seem to deal with that generation. I understand that the amdgpu support for HD7700 is experimental (and, lower priority). Please just be aware that the existing drivers you're basing off of have critical issues (I'm posting this on <a class="bz_bug_link bz_status_NEW " title="NEW - VERDE 7770 - glxdemo, vlc/glx, weston fail with garbled screen. Elsewhere blurry text rendering when focus lost" href="show_bug.cgi?id=99120">https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=99120</a>). As AMD's cutoff for amdgpu means that HD7700 should be supported eventually, I hope whatever engineering resources are presently allocated to improving the state of linux support from AMD GPU products will deal with these problems (i.e. utterly unusable GL) while the momentum is strong. Thanks, and Happy new year!</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
