Radeon R9 290 and acceleration on DragonFly

Radeon hardware support in DragonFly has been moved up to match what’s in the Linux 4.7.10 kernel.  If you have a R9 290 GPU, there’s some tweaks you may need.

(n.b. may be unnecessary now from later commits; I don’t have the hardware to check.)

  1. Awesome, got a system running an R9 290x at home and would love to have DragonFly as my daily driver

  3. Becky, if you mean something that installs to a desktop environment, I don’t think so, but the FAQ and other documentation has enough examples to get you from a basic install to an X environment easily.
