Unfortunately the DRI support for Radeon R6xx/R7xx is not stable yet. I suggest to install the xorg-x11-driver-video-radeonhd package from obs://X11:Drivers:Video (which disables DRI support on R6xx/R7xx).

If you rely on 3D support for now you need to use the proprietary fglrx driver by ATI.
Does this mean that 3D support for these cards will eventually be disabled in some future 11.2 update and not re=enabled in that version of openSUSE? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

In case we ever find the time to update the radeonhd driver package for 11.2, probably yes. Better safe than sorry ... -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
