Aah new drivers finally, odd thing seems to me that release notes dont say anything about x-video problems (on AIGLX) as a known problem or fixed one. Guess i'll need to try those later on after i get some things done.
AMD Catalyst 7.11 Linux Driver
Phoronix: AMD Catalyst 7.11 Linux Driver
For the past two months, the AMD release train has been running full speed ahead as they introduced their new driver code-base and last month had dropped in the AIGLX support. However, this month the AMD train has taken an intermediate stop as this closed-source driver embarks on its next journey. As always, we have all of the details for you on this month's ATI Catalyst 7.11 Linux display driver release.

Yeah I don't like the looks of that. That reminds me of that other release earlier in the year that was the most useless release. I hope this one is not the case as well. But it sure looks like it.Originally Posted by Dottout
