Comment 179 for bug 556782

> It works just fine a quite a few RS690 boards.

ah. ..well, it also doesn't work for quite a few RS690 boards.

I guess it's academic for me, at this point, though -- I've long since
moved on, since I had to keep working and current, and the old driver
was dropped.

If you're reading this bug and have this issue, it's been open for
nearly three years, and isn't likely to be fixed, as far as I can tell.
If 3d acceleration is important to you, it's almost definitely worth it
to get some hardware that is better supported. I went with Intel
graphics -- there's a lot less likelihood that support will be dropped
for that, since Intel's more helpful than ATI regarding open-source
drivers for their graphics hardware.
