Re: Xen VGA graphics passthru wiki page

[Sergey Tovpeko <tsv.devel@gmail.com>]

In fact, we got an engineer sample sometime ago with RD890 chipset

lspci output:

00:00.0 Host bridge: ATI Technologies Inc RD890 Northbridge only dual 
slot (2x16) PCI-e GFX Hydra part (rev 02)

And i tested VGA passthrough on RD890, not on SR5690/SR5670.  And it has 
IOMMU inside.
