It's going now really on my nerves since it gets worse. I need to like reboot 5 to 10 times before I come up with X not freezing into a full halt. When the X comes up everything works fine and I can do game deving and all going heavy on the card but it takes multiple tries before it boots.
Any ideas what could be done here? The card does work hence it is not a general problem that it would never work hence the driver ( fglrx ) has to be bugged somewhere resulting in random crashes on X startup.
And why the hell ATI is it so damn difficult to fix this? Please stop adding more gadgets to this driver if it can't reliably boot into X! In game deving all class A and B bugs ( show stopper bugs, crashes, unplayability, major impeding play ) have to be fixed first then C and lower class bugs ( smaller problems, feature requests ) are addressed. How comes you leave people having with class A bugs while wasting time on class E ( feature requests ) bugs?!
