Older (r200s) ATI cards have had open source 3d drivers for a few years. I can play the native linux version of Neverwinter Nights reasonably with my Radeon 9200. The newer cards are getting 3d support now. I had an r530 based card getting 3d acceleration in later f9 without a problem. In rawhide things are pretty unstable because of the modeseting development going on, but the cards still mostly work. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
