I fixed a few bugs and added a ksysguard daemon that can be used to monitor your rendering farm.

Nope. Damn word limit.

Last time I checked only r6xx/r7xx cards were supported by Overdrive. People with other cards should see if they can even use Overdrive (use the aticonfig --od options for the driver); I'm betting that if you can't, you can't use this either. Edit: Memory overclocking doesn't seem to work with the last version; I can make the changes in the GUI and apply them, but Overdrive and PTS still report the same memory clocks. The...

Flickering for 4850/4870 in Windows is associated with Memory Frequency changes. BTW, I'm with the latest version and the lowest I can go on my memory is the stock 900MHz. Is it possible to go lower?

Good point. The public ADL SDK license was based on the license for a different, "private" SDK, but it carried over the (now un-necessary) wording which prohibited source code release. We need to fix that.

Thank you very much for producing this tool, it helps me quite a lot keeping my machine from freezing while running a 3D-application. Running it now in opensuse 11.1 with 2.6.27.25-0.1 kernel. catalyst 9.7 installed from generated rpm. Controlling an HD4870, the GPU is currently running @300Mhz and ram @ 500Mhz. Fan speed is not being reported correctly (5000%) giving errormessage in the shell. ("Error reading fan speed...
