AMD Catalyst 12.6 Beta improvements?

[xgt001]

Having the same issue. posted a bug report here

woah looks like Ubuntu 12.04 too has the issue, got the segfault after I upgraded the xserver packages from xorg edgers ppa... amd64 here... and like i said before, no such issues on arch with xserver 1.12

Maybe it is related to the used gcc version.

Please tell me they have/will be fixing suspend/resume...

Driving me nuts on my Fusion powered netbook. fglrx does everything better than the open source driver (power management and HD video playback etc) EXCEPT I cant suspend the machine without it coming back up with a blank screen. very frustrating.

i bet the radeon driver will get power-management faster than the FGLRX/catalyst will be "stable"

Take control file and signature from stable build, not beta.

Thanks, worked grepping a signature from a stable release.

well, even my laptop has the same issue , though i do this little workaround of increasing the brightness a bit when i resume ,..this gets me rid of the blank screen, but it is annoying to do this everytime

Funnyly the 32 bit driver works with wheezy's xserver 1.12...

Wait that works?

I always suspected its more the display since it seems the machine is actually waking up and responding to commands but i never figured brightness would be a factor.

even I discovered this by mistake.. i knew the machine was waking up because of the fan sound.. so tried increasing the brightness... this works every time on my machine..YMMV

Hi, I installed the catalyst 12.6 beta drivers on my linux mint 13 maya system, using a radeon 7750 with hdmi, dvi-i and display port. extending the workspace to the hdmi and dvi works fine, but the monitor with the display port (using a display port to dvi adaptor) is not receiving a signal from the card. When I boot and post, I can see the bios bootup, but then goes black while the other two monitors are able to display the linux mint workspace. I'll look further.
