AMD has today pushed out their Catalyst 9.11 Linux driver. This release contains support for Red Hat Enterprise Linux and initial support for OpenSuSE 11.2 along with a handful of minor bug-fixes. This release does also contain proper support for the Radeon HD 5750 and Radeon HD 5770 graphics cards so that users do not encounter the "unsupported hardware" watermark any longer. Beyond that there isn't much to look at nor are there any XvBA improvements.

The AMD Catalyst 9.11 driver for Linux x86/x86_64 can be downloaded at AMD.com. This also happens to be AMD's first Catalyst Linux driver release without Matthew Tippett, their Linux core engineering manager, at the helm.
