Deprecated Video Driver

When I'm updating my ports with Portmaster I get the message that x11-drivers/xf86-video-radeonhd is deprecated and, "If you are sure you can build it, remove the DEPRECATED line in the Makefile and try again." What should I do here?

What is the best driver I can get for my Radeon HD 5700 Series card? Any information I can find on the matter is from many years ago so I am wondering what the progress on this is?

Code:
===>>> Launching child to update xf86-video-radeonhd-1.3.0_5 to xf86-video-radeonhd-1.3.0_6

===>>> All >> xf86-video-radeonhd-1.3.0_5 (13/13)

===>>> Currently installed version: xf86-video-radeonhd-1.3.0_5
===>>> Port directory: /usr/ports/x11-drivers/xf86-video-radeonhd

	===>>> This port is marked DEPRECATED
	===>>> Abandond upstream since 2010


	===>>> If you are sure you can build it, remove the
	       DEPRECATED line in the Makefile and try again.

===>>> Update for xf86-video-radeonhd-1.3.0_5 failed
===>>> Aborting update
 
Alright, it looks like I have both installed on my system already. (FreeBSD 10 fresh installed a week ago) Is there a way to tell which one the system is using?

I went to the link you provided and followed the instructions there. Editing /etc/make.conf and then executing the Portmaster command it provided:
Code:
portmaster graphics/libdrm graphics/dri x11-servers/xorg-server \
    x11-drivers/xf86-input-mouse x11-drivers/xf86-input-keyboard \
    x11-drivers/xf86-video-intel x11-drivers/xf86-video-ati graphics/libGL
failed in graphics/dri with:

Sorry, I just posted a response to the same problem in another thread. When you're upgrading X at the same time, do pkg delete -f libGL dri first. I'll update the wiki.
 
Could be an overscan problem, but it's really hard to tell without knowing more about the video card, the monitor, xorg.conf, and /var/log/Xorg.0.log. But this is a new problem, so please start a new thread with an appropriate title.
