Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-driver-ati
Hi, when I bought this card it was cheap and easy to turn it into a Radeon9700 pro with 8 pixelpipelines with a hacked driver in Windows. The memory bandwith was also boosted from 128bit to 256bit. So you got a very good card to play games for less than 300€ when it was published. It's nice that the free radeon driver does this, too, but the extra pixelpipelines are annoying when there is at least one defective. You won't notice this in a shooter, but with beryl it just sucks. Here is a picture: http://img91.imageshack.us/img91/1184/pixelfehlersd8.png It would be nice if there would be xorg.conf option to turn these pixelpipelines on and off if I wish. ** Affects: xorg (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- My Radeon9500 runs with 8 Pixelpipelines, instead of 4 https://launchpad.net/bugs/63956 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
