8.52 You realise we use Nvidia cards anyway?

[yoshi314]

8.53 - "we use windows edition"
8.54 - "what is gcc? edition"
8.55 - "AIGLX? as in Another Irresistible Great Letter X ? edition"
8.56 - "just use windows edition"
8.57 - "we can't code, we're just cleaning here edition"

[Battery]

8.39 - "A update only noticeable through a microscope"

8.40 - "ATI/AMD Linux Catalyst Drivers: Crash a-lot Edition"

8.41 - "Bits of AIGLX code found, but no implementation Edition"

8.42 - "ATI/AMD Linux Catastrophe Drivers: The name says it all."

8.43 - "I smell AIGLX, oh wait, nevermind."

8.44 - "The still no performance improvement edition."

8.45 - "The last release, and sadly, the most pointless."

Thats my prediction. Of course it could go in any order, not just the order I specified above. Maybe with the exception of the last release one, but I had to end the list haha.

Also I think that if AMD is going to put money into a linux division, they should do it right. Either that, or just release the specs and don't have one at all if they're not going to do anything.

I was being nice My original title for that one involved a buyout of some sort, but then I realize they'd already been bought out, so I just re-routed it :3

8.39: What you expected

Same maintenance/nothing-new-for-the-end-user type of driver. Seriously now, would you expect anything else?!
