The support will likely be back in 8.43. Nevertheless I decided to update to 8.41 for openSUSE 10.3 (only), since the support for new graphics chip familiy (HD 2xxxx) is much more important than the support for FireGL/FireMV cards for older chip families. Need to close this as LATER. -- 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.

This version is not supported at all for non-HD cards and is known to be completely broken on AGP x**** cards. Since there are undoubtedly a lot more r300, r400, and r500 users than there are r600 users, doesn't it make sense to use 8.40 instead of 8.41 and have the r600 users have to install 8.41 manually?

The decision to take 8.41 has been made with the background that with openSUSE 10.3 Radeon-HD card support is more important than the temporarily dropped FireGL/FireMV support. There are currently no plans to revert this decision. In your case it seems even to be a configuration issue (specified Modeline which confuses the driver and results in a segfault), so this would have happended with 8.40 as well. -- 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.

I do have two machines, one with an AGP x1300 one with an AGP x700, that won't work at all with 8.41. I just haven't finished installing them yet :-) If you go to AMD's website and download the latest driver for any *non* HD card, you will either get 8.40 (for radeons) or 8.35 (for FireGL and FireMV). Is there a technical reason you don't want to revert to 8.40 for non Radeon-HD cards? -- 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.

At least this is the impression I got from the fglrx driver beta list and testing the driver on different cards myself.

It's certainly true that 8.41 works fine for many users. I just find it strange that users are given a driver for their video card when the release notes for the driver even say to use 8.40 instead of 8.41. In any case, it's certainly not a big deal, and I've already updated the ATI page on the wiki to reflect the problem, suggesting that r300-r500 uses may want to use the -- 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.
