[Mesa-users] Wrong driver detected for GPU?

[Benjamin Bellec]

Hi,

All is correct with that.
The Evergreen GPU family is handled by the r600g Mesa "driver".

r600g covers several GPU generation : R600, R700, Evergreen and Northern
Islands GPUs.
That was the same before with r300g which handles R300, R400 and R500 GPUs.
And the same for the "radeonsi" drivers.
