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.

I've installed 8.40 and at least my laptop is functional again.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=326473#c12 --- Comment #12 from Adam Kirchhoff 2007-10-08 07:56:58 MST --- Bear in mind that this driver version didn't just drop support for FireGL and FireMV cards. 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?

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=326473#c14 --- Comment #14 from Adam Kirchhoff 2007-10-08 08:40:46 MST --- Well, on that particular machine it was a configuration issue. 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.

Do you have any insider knowledge about when 8.42 will be released? :-) -- 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.

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.
