Hi,
First, I took a look at the current radeon source, but if someone could
explain me what the ringbuffer and the freelist are, i think i would at least
be able to imagine something of what's supposed to happen.
But that source is still 7500 only :-(
Anyway about the FireGL stuff :

I tested them too, but with lesser success. I have the Tyan AMD 760MP MB with
two 1800+ processors. First all looks good but then... :

Off course, i know this will probably not supported, so i still hope for the
open 8500 driver.
cheers,
Peter
