OK. Thanks. I understand. What I don't understand is why some developers don't try to get information on what they are developing with (ie ATI with linux kernel) since, all of a sudden, latest ATI drivers use that thing "everyone would like to go away". > That's the problem with proprietary drivers.

I think then that ATI will change its driver code for the next releases if they still want to be supported 'proprietary' on linux. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-amd64-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
