This is the Internet, it looks like a me too and it smells like a me too
I consider it a me too, providing info on the type/range of cards tested
etc is useful.. saying avivo broken radeonhd not is not useful as we
also have ppl saying the opposite...

Red Hat and Fedora are contemplating the future wrt to AMD r5xx cards,
all options are going to be looked at, there may even be options that
you don't know about yet..
