Please complain directly to ATI.

In a nutshell, ATI abruptly dropped support for older graphics cards in the latest version of its driver. A new legacy driver series is in beta; for those affected by this problem you can either switch to the legacy beta (not recommended unless you're prepared to report and troubleshoot bugs) or downgrade to fglrx64__xpic_SUSE121-8.961-5. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
