I want to run CentOS 7 as the host system, but there doesn't seem to be
a good driver for the Radeon video card.  The install, no artifacting.
When it actually boots to gnome though, terrible artifacting.

I could just run Windows 7 instead of Linux, but I prefer Linux ;-)

I'm trying to use this older laptop as a sandbox for Labview which runs
on CentOS 7 directly.  I remember having Linux on this old laptop, but
I had to use Catalyst or something like that for Linux.  Tried to find
an AMD driver for the video card, got something meant for CentOS 7.2
which is dated.  I think this laptop has an AMD AM3+ socket, so I
should be able to replace the Athlon II dual core with an Athlon II
quad core.  Although, this laptop runs pretty hot as it is...

Any help figuring out how to get the artifacting addressed will be very
much appreciated ;-)
