Howdy,

I need someone who is familiar with the internals of the radeon_hd accelerant to show me the *proper* way to allocate the 16KiB (16384 bytes) from graphics RAM for the bitmap cursor.

I don't want to risk damaging things, so I'm not gonna just try and hope I'm right ;-)

Code to allocate 16KiB would be ideal, but giving me a few hints would be fine as well.

I don't see any good examples in the driver, and the way Linux does it is considerably different... to say the least.

Thanks in advance (and, please, be quick.. before I go guessing and risking my $300 video card's health...).
