[FusionComm] AMD Press Release re: ATI Drivers

[Sam Spilsbury]

I'm trying to comprehend most of this stuff here. Most of it I
understand, I'm just not clear on one thing.

Is ATI going to be adding support to thier driver so that AIGLX will
run, or will they be adding GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap like NVIDIA?

Otherwise, still great news :)

Regards,

Sam
