How long do I have to wait to get crossfire support for my 2 HD6950s in linux?!? I have it in windows, it works in windows, I HATE windows. I use it about 1 once a month on my desktop. Rest of the...

AMD and ATI have been my match made in heaven for as long as I can remember (since before the all in wonder cards and my K7 thunderbird cpu!). Its all I buy. I have NEVER purchased an Intel or Nvidia...

When can we expect to see some results where the OS graphics drivers can compete with the FGLRX binaries?
Also, we can we expect some benchmark comparisons? I'd love to switch to the OS drivers on...

Don't take this the wrong way, but have you payed much attention to the temp capabilities of AMD and ATI hardware? Hell, the Turion64 single core cpu was allowed to get up to 80C without thought, and...

BTW, don't use radeonhd. use xf86-video-ati . radeonhd used to have an advantage over the normal OSS ati driver, but no longer does. In fact the ati driver has surpassed the radeonhd driver, I'm...

I use Sabayon Linux 5.1 x86_64 KDE4 (based off gentoo so it can use portage AND our binary package manager entropy)

I'm pretty sure this should work with 2.6.33 considering the last update for the...

Forgive me, but have you tried using Mesa 7.7 + Xorg 7.5 + 2.6.32 kernel + xf86-video-ati-9999 ? I'm getting great results. I'm using Sabayon Linux (gentoo based) have have added the x11 overlay and...

Choose AMD/ATI. Opensource drivers work well, now beginning to support 3d acceleration beginning with mesa-7.6 kernel-2.6.32 radeonhd-1.3.0 .
If you prefer fglrx drivers, they work splendidly and...

That was freaking funny! I'm an AMD/ATI fanboy and have been since the rage3d and k6 .

I remember using slackware on my old Pentium 1 in stead of windows 95.
It was my first distro. windows 98 was out and instead of upgrading I tried slackware. I did well and learned a lot using...

Lol, you don't need ubuntu to get the FGLRX 9.10beta catalyst drivers. I use sabayon linux (a gentoo derivative) and am using the 9.10beta drivers just fine. I've noticed an issue myself with XV ...

You do have a point, but any linux system allows you to do things by hand. Thus the freedom and flexability of linux. You don't always need to use the tools, they are helpful, yet sometimes they do...

My my, is flaming the only thing your good at? I used slackware for 4 years and never had the need for a package manager to do my work for me. R you saying that you cannot manage your own computer...

What the heck are you talking about? I am using the drivers right now with absolutely no problems. This also was for a gentoo based distro.
Cant help it if you aren't linux savy enough to follow...

These drivers are great. you just need patches is all.
If you use a gentoo based distro, i've got an ebuild and fix
that will work to get them going. sorry, its a crappy ebuild
but it gets the...
