Mathais,
I do not mean in any way to disparage anyone's efforts in writing
drivers for graphics cards. My comment was simply an attempt to
summarize the situation with respect to getting a graphics card to work
under X based on what I read in the bug reports. I upgraded from an ATI
9600 to an ATI
Great Dominik! A BIG thank you! I was getting crazy about this, you
avoided me a downgrade to 8.10 :-)
Turning acpi-services=off it seems to work!
Ctrl-Alt-F1 switch to VC works
Suspend and resume works
Compiz works
VMware Workstation 3D acceleration works
I've only a message like this from the

I really cannot understand what is causing the kernel BUG with my
combination of ATI HD3650
Under openSUSE 11.1 (64bit) it seems that with catalyst 9.5 the problem
is gone (I am using an ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650). The X server starts
up just fine without using "aticonfig --acpi-services=off". (This also
solves a problem with the HDMI output (hot-plug) recognition.)
I am sorry, that I
Georges,
How is this related to the bug? Just for the record, the mobility radeon
3650 mentioned in the initial posting is not one of the "older" cards
not supported anylonger since fglrx 9.4. However, these cards are
supposed to be supported by the open source driver - the efforts AMD has
done to
So if I understand correctly, many ATI chipsets will no longer be
supported by the fglrx driver under Ununtu and some other distributions
of Linux. No atempt will be made by AMD to maintain support for even
relatively recent chipsets and using the fglrx driver is really just
gambling. This means Ub
