AMD fans using Linux have found a way to keep older graphics cards functional through the use of AI tools. Gert Wollny, a key contributor, has made significant updates to the R600 Gallium3D driver, which supports Radeon HD 2000 and HD 6000 series graphics cards. These cards, originally launched in 2007 under ATI, lost official support in 2013. Wollny's recent work includes close to 60 commits to the Mesa drivers, aided by Microsoft's GitHub Copilot, which has helped streamline the shader compiler code. This project not only maintains legacy hardware but also showcases the potential of AI in software development. However, developers are contemplating the need to branch these legacy drivers to ensure that ongoing Mesa development does not compromise the functionality of older cards. The community has expressed gratitude for these updates, emphasizing the importance of careful code review to prevent issues arising from AI-generated changes.
