Description

Unfortunately this chipset series fall in between the supported cards of either radeon (too new) or the radeon_hd (too old) driver. These cards could be supported through the radeon_hd driver (as in Linux), and the driver contains parts which are indicative of work in this direction. Completing this without deeper knowledge of the Haiku driver is non-trivial (the Linux driver is no help since, codebases are too different). Haiku is a good choice for old laptops, where these chipsets were used; having native display resolution would be a nice improvement.

Sorry for opening this, after doing a more through search, this ticket is actually the same as #8436 and therefore can be closed.
