How come sometimes certain
OpenGL extensions break or go missing between driver releases? What breaks them and such? Sorry I'm not a programmer or anything, I just want to understand what causes this to happen.

So I could totally be asking in the wrong place, but from
all the places that I've looked, this one looks as good as any.
So- From what I've read, the 9.3 Catalyst is supported up to the 2.6.28 kernel and x-server version 1.52.
My poor laptop is running an ATI Radeon Xpress 1100 and REALLY REALLY wants to leave windoze for the newest Linux kernel. The open-source drivers for my card are...

Interesting... I'd love to try it and find out if my 5750 is supported, but more than a little concerned about whether it contains any malware or not.
I guess I'll just have to wait for the official release instead

Call me troll but unless OSS driver provides support for new ATI cards,
I'm holding on buying any of them. The fglrx is just such a deep sh*t that hurt me too much for my forgiveness, be it the latest version, still crap, period.

Greetings Fine Folk Of The Phoronix Forums!
I'm a bit of a newbie to both linux, and this forum (first post!). I've been having some trouble setting up my Fedora 11 based HTPC with my HDTV, and was hoping some of you might be able to help.
Basically, I get
no signal on my tv 'till I run a console, and alternate between 'xrandr --output DFP2 --off' & 'xrandr --output DFP2 --auto' a few ...

I haven't really got a clue what causes that error, it may be your card isn't supported or it may be some other reason.
There may be some extra info in /usr/share/ati/
fglrx-install.log.
I have an AGP HD3850 and with my mobo, it won't work properly with fglrx or the OSS drivers unless I set the AGP Aperture size in the bios to 256.
3D support is coming along with the OSS drivers and...

R700 has h264 decode capability via XvBA on the closed driver. I have no idea about the state of 3d on that driver.
The open driver supports 3D up to R700, but no
video decode *yet*, though it *will* support video decode acceleration via shaders.

Try to plug the CRT in the other port. Worked for me. I had the same problem with
TV-Out.
