Sorry John but your card is not supported according to the official release notes.
Yup it is. See: http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/linux/Legacy/Pages/radeon_linux.asp x?type=2.4.2&product=2.4.2.3.9&lang=English
9.3 is the version supporting my card, however it won't build under 11.2.
I just checked the page you listed and your card is definitely not on the list. Mine is (X1650) tho that is of no help to you. You card seems to be last supported by the 9.2 series.
No, you misread that list. That lists cards that have been MOVED out of this driver into the Legacy driver. (what ever the hell that one is). You are right. I did misread that. That should have been labeled 'Legacy Support'. My apologies.
So this driver SHOULD work, but unfortunately, none of the installation methods work because it does not recognize xorg 4.7. Yep, I tried the rpm from the repo on my box and it crapped out with version mismatch, so I'm back to the radeon driver with all the screen artifacts. It reminds of the good olde days...
