Public bug reported: ..can't remove fglrx. Trying to access GPUCAPS on Win7 disk (partition) using wine 1.2 so I can check the GPU card using CAPS
(which by the way gave me the first real test of my GPU ~ HD Radeon 4850.) I am having issues using any of the resources from the ATI sites, NVIDIA sites, and AMD sites using Ubuntu (both 10.04 on CAELinux and 12.10 on Ubuntu Server.)
