[Mageia-dev] ANN: x11-server 1.12 landing on cauldron:
For those of you using the proprietary AMD fglrx driver, I will
upload fglrx 8.98 (Catalyst 12.6beta) as it's the first one to
support the new x11-server.
But Amd has dropped support for any hw older than HD5000 in the
new driver so you need to switch to the free driver if you have
older hw. (there is some rumours of a fglrx-legacy in the works,
but I dont know when/if it will show up, or what it will support)
Thanks. It works for Cauldron quality. But is has a nasty splash:
'AMD
Testing
use only'
though transparent - in the lower righthand corner the size of 4 desktop
icons which goes away only during use of some tabs in catalyst control,
when the big '2' is on top of everything. Alas.
Thats because it is not signed upstream.
You can try to backup old file:
mv /etc/ati/signature /etc/ati/signature.orig
and copy the /etc/ati/signature from previous package
(I saw it on the net, but I'm not sure it actually will work)
and add it to /etc/ati/signature on your system.
For simplicity I have an extracted signature here:
http://tmb.mine.nu/Mageia/Cauldron/testing/fglrx/signature
and reboot.
if it does not work, just rename the backup file back and reboot again
