Really? Why? I thought the radeonhd was to replace radeon eventually?  
Built off the released specs from AMD/ATI, whereas the radeon driver  
was a reverse engineered driver without docs? Am I on crack? After  
seeing this and thinking I was using radeonhd I looked at my x log  
messages which show RADEON(x), so I guess I'm using that now anyway,  
but a bit confused...
