Current version: 8.10.19 (16.02.2005)
Problems & Help
Driver Version 8.8.25: The following patch may be needed for kernels >= 2.6.10: http://www.rage3d.com/board/showthread.php?t=33798874
Driver Version 8.8.25: For kernels >= 2.6.11-rc1 try the following patch: http://www.gehirn.org.uk/wiki/images/8.8.25-kernel-2.6.11+.patch
If the ATI driver works only without the hardware acceleration, take into consideration that fglrx_dri.so was linked against libstdc++.so.5 which may not be present if your system uses gcc-3.4. To fix this, compile gcc-3.3.5 and copy libstdc++.so.5* to /usr/lib and update the dynamic linker cache.
Packages
- Debian Packages: http://xoomer.virgilio.it/flavio.stanchina/debian/fglrx-installer.html
- SuSE Packages: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/supplementary/X/ATI/
Useful links
- Unofficial community ATI bugzilla Very newly setup (!) bugzilla, which might grow to be a source for information about ATI bugs. Might then be monitored by ATI guys ([1], [2]). We will see how this develops.
