Radeon HD 2400 pro Under Picasso96 Control

Posted by Hans de Ruiter

Here is a quick screen shot to show that the Picasso96 driver can also open screens on a Radeon HD 2400 pro. This is fairly unremarkable since mode setting on the 2400 pro was demonstrated previously, albeit by a test program instead of a proper driver. However, I have read at least one comment online that suggests that the Picasso96 driver can ony handle R5xx series cards. Therefore, here is proof that the same driver, without modification, can also drive an R6xx series card.

I have temporarily switched back to the Radeon HD 2400 pro due to a suspected faulty data line on the graphics memory of the Radeon X1300. Thus, for now, development will continue using the R6xx card. Hopefully the remaining R6xx GPU documentation will be released soon, otherwise I will likely need a new R5xx series card in order to continue development.
