Hello everyone,

I just saw something very interesting about kernel 2.6.32:

"3D graphics on AMD/ATI's series 2000, 3000 and 4000 Radeon graphics cards.
Improving 3D graphics support should help improve Linux' standing as a gaming
platform, among other benefits." 


"performing mode-setting for graphics card resolution and 
depth mode settings in kernel-space offers advantages over 
user-based mode-setting"[1]

Anyone seen any improvements yet? Is it just for the ati-drivers or 
does any of the open source drivers make use of these kernel
enhancements?
