Currently the machine using the rv280 is running rawhide with KMS. OpenGL was
working on the card on F12 (also with KMS) when it was released.

The performance varies over time and right now video seems a bit slower than
in the past, but I may have monkeyed around with some of the player settings.

I do need an xorg.conf file because my monitors don't do EDID and the
default screen resolution isn't what I want.
