Hi guys,
Anyone know when we might see this fix make it into Ubuntu 16.04's
official repos? I'm doing some app development that's hindered by this
bug.
(If there's a better forum for this question, I'd be grateful for a
redirect.)
Thanks very much,
Christian

because it places the "AMD Unsupported hardware" watermark on the

Sorry, to clarify my previous comment, I'm using Quantal, 64-bit at the
moment.

This is because ATI was not good about covering laptop-vendor-specific
chips in their driver documentation. Consulting historical documents
from AMD/ATI will not help you as much as one would hope.

I believe that's correct: the *current* version of fglrx doesn't support
ATI FirePro M7740 chip. Unfortunately, it's only the current version
that's compatible with the version of X that ships with Ubuntu 12.10.

It sounds like you're in the same boat that I am. Basically, ATI
decided that any Radeon product with a chip numbered 4xxx is too old
to be worth supporting any more. ATI has written you off.

Not sure. I'm not that well versed on the intricacies of the X
server and/or the linux kernel.
I think it would take someone from AMD to say whether or not their
newest driver REALLY needs version 11 of the ABI, or if versions 12/13
are actually okay as well.

I'm going to add a comment to help people Googling this issue. The ATI
Mobility M7740 chip, which was one option for the Dell M6500 Mobile
Precision laptop, is apparently considered a 4000-series chip, and so is
a victim of this AMD policy.
