Just reuse old /etc/ati/control file. Ati 5670 does not have got your watermark problem however, only stability.

I can confirm that the beta driver fixes this problem. Also I used Kano's script to install the driver, it must of removed the watermark, because I don't have one.

[xpander]

can anyone share his control file pls.
im lazy to do the whole progress again

[xpander]

got it working allready with Kano's Script
thx!

#!/bin/sh
DRIVER=/usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/fglrx_drv.so
for x in $(objdump -d $DRIVER|awk '/call/&&/EnableLogo/{print "\\x"$2"\\x"$3"\\x"$4"\\x"$5"\\x"$6}'); do
 sed -i "s/$x/\x90\x90\x90\x90\x90/g" $DRIVER
done
