Hi,
I have been running my laptop for several months now with OSS 13.1 and the graphics drivers that were loaded by the install disk.
I have 98% of all I wish to use fully operational and have no need to run windows ever again.
The 2% is a game that has problems with certain renderings and support has said that its a known problem with mesa drivers.
So my question is do I swap to the fglrx driver that will possibly fix this game?
Is it recommended to use the fglrx driver with 13.1?
Any tried the latest beta version of fglrx and is that a possibility?
I don’t want to break the major part that is working good, 3D animation tools, 3D design tools, 2D graphics, streaming from all sources inc silverlight etc etc....
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Robert
PS I had major problems with the ATI driver with my last distro, with streaming and with broken updates ( it was a bleeding edge distro ) now I am using the much more stable "bottle" OSS AND the mesa drivers so hard for me to judge which was the biggest upgrade
