Updated xf86-video-ati to 7.8.0.
I'm pleased to announce the 7.8.0 release of xf86-video-ati, the Xorg driver for ATI/AMD Radeon GPUs supported by the radeon kernel driver. This release supports xserver versions 1.10-1.19. Highlights: * Significant 2D compositing performance increase, in particular with glamor enabled. * Option "TearFree" can now prevent tearing in all possible display configurations (with current versions of Xorg). Specifically, it's now also effective with arbitrary RandR transforms and with RandR 1.4 slave output. * DRI3 is now enabled by default if the Xorg version is >= 1.18.3 and glamor is enabled. * DRI3/Present asynchronous page flips are now supported (requires corresponding kernel driver support, available in current versions of the Linux kernel). This can increase performance of fullscreen applications with sync-to-vblank disabled. * The HW cursor can now be used with RandR 1.4 slave output or with TearFree & rotation. * Performance improvements with RandR 1.4 slave output. * The list of supported GPUs in the Xorg log file has been slightly tidied up. * RandR 1.4 provider capabilities are now advertised more accurately. Plus many other improvements and fixes. Thanks to everybody who contributed to this release in any way!
