I confirm, the combo ati driver 8.33.6 and kernel 2.6.19 seems
fast and stable. About twice the glxgears FPS than 8.29 and
both suspend and hibernate work without a glitch.
BTW, I've seen that the ati driver 8.33.6 was removed from fr
test area?
Strange, I had problems with the dkms-ntfs and dkms-ndiswrapper.
With 2.6.19 kernel they complained the sources are not installed
and cannot compile. I have installed both kernel-devel and
kernel-headers, as for 2.6.18, where everything was just fine.
So I reverted these to FC/Livna.
Excellent job, thanks!
