This is the first good news I've heard on this topic in many moons! I'm running Intrepid 8.10, with local kernel mods (PAPI) that I don't want to mess with at present, so upgrading the kernel at this juncture is not something I want to do, at least in the near-term.
If someone can give me some assurance that: 1. The new fglrx driver is likely to work with 8.10, and 2. The crash is likely due to the old fglrx driver, rather than to the linux kernel. then, I'll give the new fglrx code a try. Otherwise, it'll have to wait until I finish my current project and benchmarks... Or, if someone can assure me that the kernel/X upgrades are a definite prerequisite for the fix, then I'll at least know where I'm at with this. Thanks.
