The new Free ATI Radeon drivers

Some time has passed since ATI released specs and since the initial free and open version of a new driver was announced. So I thought I'd take a look since most of my boxes are all ATI based.

git clone git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/xorg/driver/xf86-video-radeonhd
sudo apt-get install xorg-dev
./autogen.sh
./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc
make &&  sudo make install

Then just change your _xorg.conf _file for the new radeonhd driver and be done with it. Works like a charm here, congrats to everyone involved ;)
