I see a thread from this mailing list discussing people trying out the new drivers and using an aticonfig command (aticonfig --px-dgpu) to do the switch between the two cards. However, when I install the driver aticonfig just tells me No supported adapters connected and yet my card is listed in the drivers docs as supported.
Is there some secret sauce I am missing getting this thing to load at all?
