Problems with current ATI-graphics dirvers
Dear listmembers, I want to inform you that I was finally successful in installing the latest (8.18.8) ATI-drivers on my system. Problem: when starting sax after the rpm-install, the screen went colory but useless (though looking somewhat nice :-))) ) To resolve this, I had to change the startup - line from sax2 -r -m -0=fglrx -b /usr/share/doc/packages/fglrx/sax2-profile to sax2 --lowres -r -m -0=fglrx -b /usr/share/doc/packages/fglrx/sax2-profile from then on, the configuration became possible. Just for your information, it might be of help for someone. Now I can happily use 1600x1200 without problems - as I did with the 8.14.13 driver release. System: Tyan Tiger 2460 SMP motherboard, ATI 9600XT graphics card, 21'' Elsa Ecomo 750 monitor. SuSE 9.3.
