Use ChipId rewrite (was Re: XFree86 4.2.0) (Score: 5, Informative)

You can get the RADEON 7500 card to work with XFree86 4.1.0 by using the ChipID rewriting option of XFree86. Just add the following to your device section:
Option "ChipId 0x5159"
and select the radeon driver.
I am using my RADEON since end of November happily with this option. Ok, the real 7500 support in 4.2.0 might give you better performance i.e. for 3D but the ChipId rewrite provides already very good results. At least MUCH better results than the VESA or FB driver.
And then I am sure that you can easily wait until 4.2.0 hits Debian Unstable...
et hop plus de frame buffer, ca permet de patienter en attendant la 4.2.0, j'ai testé chez moi, ca roule ...
