Mathais, I do not mean in any way to disparage anyone's efforts in writing drivers for graphics cards. My comment was simply an attempt to summarize the situation with respect to getting a graphics card to work under X based on what I read in the bug reports. I upgraded from an ATI 9600 to an ATI

Under openSUSE 11.1 (64bit) it seems that with catalyst 9.5 the problem is gone (I am using an ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650). The X server starts up just fine without using aticonfig --acpi-services=off. (This also solves a problem with the HDMI output (hot-plug) recognition.) I am sorry, that I

Georges, How is this related to the bug? Just for the record, the mobility radeon 3650 mentioned in the initial posting is not one of the older cards not supported anylonger since fglrx 9.4. However, these cards are supposed to be supported by the open source driver - the efforts AMD has done to

So if I understand correctly, many ATI chipsets will no longer be supported by the fglrx driver under Ununtu and some other distributions of Linux. No atempt will be made by AMD to maintain support for even relatively recent chipsets and using the fglrx driver is really just gambling. This means

Apparently this is an incompatibilty from ATI (fglrx) with the latest xserver? The move from Ubuntu 8.04 to 8.10 has a newer version of xserver, which is incompatible with ATI's latest 9.3 Catalyst. The worst part is, that I just noticed that ATI recently announced the following cards as
