The xf86-video-ati 7.6.0 release supports xserver versions 1.8-1.18.
New features in this release:
* DRI3 and Present extension support, allowing more efficient and secure
OpenGL compositing
* Option "TearFree" [0] to eliminate tearing (currently only effective for
non-rotated outputs)
* Option "ShadowPrimary" [0] which may deliver better performance for some
2D use cases, at the potential expense of other use cases (only available
with glamor)
* DisplayPort 1.2 MST support
* Implemented support for Xorg -background none with glamor and fixed it to
work better with EXA
* The contents of newly allocated buffers are always initialized before
scanout, reducing intermittent artifacts
[0] Enabling Option "TearFree" or Option "ShadowPrimary" currently disables
DRI page flipping.
Plus support for a few more Bonaire and Oland GPUs, and lots of other small
improvements and fixes. Thanks to everybody who contributed to this
