10-7 force me to use the radeon driver because:

On ubuntu 10.10 64bit i have a mini/maximize LAG like non direct2D catalyst 10-5 versions in the 10-7 catalyst

and then i install the 32bit version and i get graphic corruptions if i scrol horizontal

this bug makes me crazy.. can't read the phornix forum in zoomed because i can't scrol without broke the view.
yes also 10-7 catalyst.


so now i use the radeon driver and wow i can read the phoronix forum without any corruption and flash videos work very good overall i get peace. (yes yes r700 hd4670)


i really don't understand the 'catalyst' release Philosophy
100 time more money compared to the radeon driver means bigger 'fire' and burn more money.
well the catalyst 10-8 will come fast this month means the monkeys comes out of the madhouse a little earlier.

Just save your money for a GTX 460 ;)

What the hell?? Do yourself a favor and get some qt-gtk themes or whatever... that is the ugliest firefox I've seen in a long time.

(Ironic)o well the Theme ist very important compared to the graphic error showed on my screenshot..(ironic off)

i don't care about the uglyness of an programm i also like atari/TOS ugly programms....

try using opengl compositing with kwin (you're obviously using kwin) or as an alternative: compiz-fusion

that should minimize those corruptions
