Daniel Stone is announcing the avalability of the first AMD/ATI specs - chips RV630 and M56 apparently. The specifications are released without an NDA.

It's even less than that - I had a quick scan through and all this stuff will let you do about 3 things. 1 - run VGA mode, 2 - setup your own video modes and memory timings, 3 - run video overlay surfaces and hardware mouse cursors.
I couldn't find any HW acceleration of blit,fill etc stuff in there at all.
Mind you, it's a start.
