I'm not the maintainer of that extension - I sent a pm to the maintainer to request an update.

Who is the maintainer of firmware-radeon.tcz?

Is it coreplayer2:

?

I updated most the firmware packages some time back, am not sure if radeon firmware was part of that update...  but I'll take a look at an update if possible later today

That's nice, thanks in advance  .

Hello,

any update regarding firmware-radeon.tcz?

Regards

[coreplayer2]

Unfortunately I had difficulty finding an update for the radeon firmare from the sources link provided by the extension creator.  However I think I may have found an update, so we'll see about an update in a couple more days.

How about this one:

?

[coreplayer2]

Hmmmm??

[pq5190362]

Hmmmm??

What do you mean with "Hmmmm??"  ?

Isn't this:

the radeon firmware?

[coreplayer2]

I was suspicious of the address, but given who David Zeuthen and the lack of finding an official source I'll go ahead and update from the address provided.  I'm assuming you have a Radeon card so I'll send you an updated extension to test in a few minutes

I'm assuming you have a Radeon card

Not at the moment.

but given who David Zeuthen

Hmm? Where did you see a reference to "David Zeuthen"?

and the lack of finding an official source

I'm not entirely sure either if it is the correct thing for the firmware. But I have found a lot of references to it, see for example:

pity, I just sent you an updated extension to try

but given who David Zeuthen

within the link you provided

Yeah, sorry, can't test right now.

But I also assumed that the maintainer of Radeon firmware would be in possession of Radeon hardware  .

Maybe you could post the updated extension in a new thread in:

TCE Talk

or:

TCE News

and ask for testers there  ?

I could help to test the firmware radeon, my tc6 x86 is up to date. But my hardware is an old ATI X1400 mobile. Please send me your tcz. Regards.
