Any update on this? Here is the most recent xf86-video-ati: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/X11:XOrg/xf86-video-ati -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

The system should autodetect your ATI card at install time, and automatically install xf86-video-radeon. If, for some reason, that didn't happen, your system will still have full 3D support through xf86-video-modesetting these days. To check which one is active, look at /var/log/Xorg.0.log - first every driver will say hello, then the active one will print a slew of lines about the detected monitor, resolutions, etc. You can attach that file and I'll have a look. Do the artifacts still appear on Leap 42.2? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

[AMD/ATI] Oland [Radeon HD 8570 / R7 240/340 OEM] and a 4k monitor, but I couldn't see any pointer flickering. Sorry, can't reproduce. :( Maybe this only happens on very specific hardware, and I've only seen it when trying some newer development stages of the driver. If running 42.2 is not an option for you, I'd recommend either of: 1. zypper remove xf86-video-ati This will make your system run with the modesetting DDX, which should be an almost identical experience on the new card. 2. Try the newest xf86-video-ati package: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/X11:XOrg/xf86-video-ati -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
