Feature added by: Jorge Hernandez (jfha73) Feature #313474, revision 1 Title: AMD Vision drivers openSUSE Distribution: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Jorge Hernandez (jfha73) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Hey guys, I was trying to install OpenSUSE 12.1 to a laptop with: AMD Radeon HD 7690M and AMD Radeon(TM) HD 6620G Video cards and the installation interface never showed up, I guess it doesn't have support for these video cards And just in case, here is more software it has so you can make sure it will have support for it in a later distribution: * HP TrueVision HD webcam * Realtek PCIe GBE family controller (this might be in it already) * Realtek RTL8188CE 802.11b/g/n WiFi Adapter (the drivers for this one are at www.realtek.com.tw * IDT High Definition Audio codec on AMD High Definition Audio Device * AMD USB 3.0 And there is a Fingerprint reader that all it says is Validity Sensor (WBF) Thanks for anything you can do about it. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/313474
