Written by Michael Larabel in AMD on 10 September 2009 at 09:54 AM EDT. Add A Comment

While the open-source X.Org developers that focus on the xf86-video-ati DDX driver have been working on the 6.13 driver as the next feature release for this driver, a new (major) bug-fix release is now available. The xf86-video-ati 6.12.3 driver brings support for X.Org 7.5 along with bug-fixes ranging from AGP quirks to adding missing PCI IDs to other fixes.

The xf86-video-ati 6.12.3 driver release announcement can be read on the X.Org mailing list.
