does anyone have any experience with the new Radeon 4770? How does it work under linux/opensuse? I want to buy one, but only if it goes well without problem.
Thanks, -- Eszter
Hi .
If you read the archives you will see there is a lot of problems with ATI cards ok if all you want is 2D but 3D is another bag of worms entirley i have a laptop lumbered with an ATI card and it is the first and last machine i will purchase that has ATI inside , Stick to Nvidia i say some people are bound to disagree i say as i find ATI no way
I can second that. I have both ATI and nVidia cards. ATI has been nothing but trouble... real trouble. I refuse to buy another one... nVidia on the other hand, I've had many of them, and helped friends set up Linux on their computers with nVidia cards and all simply just worked. The binary drivers are good... they are fairly easy to install, even if you use the downloaded manual install method over the repository drivers. There is at least one ATI "expert" here who has a LOT of experience fighting his ATI cards (search the archives for "david new ati release" and you'll find a long thread discussing the ATI drivers). He posts a lot of reports on successes and failures... more failures and problems he's encountered than anything else unfortunately... his suggestions are quite helpful though, and have helped me prevent baldness while fighting my own ATI card setup.
