AMD Catalyst 9.11 For Linux Released

That's one of the disappointing releases, i set it as default as it allows more hardware to work, but to use the opengl renderer with fglrx you still have to use 9-10 driver. Until xvba-sdk is released that will not change soon. If you only had problems with the unsupported watermark just fetch the /etc/control file from new driver and then run my script with "-v 9-10" option...

Just to report that Catalyst 9.11 fails on two systems with opensuse 11.2 and HD4670 with the same result (system freeze).
The same driver works for opensuse 11.1 and an HD3200.
Catalyst 9.10 works on both problematic systems.
Al installations are made with ati's installer. No errors on logs, just a freeze system that requires hard reset.
Thanks ATI.

Damn 9.10: the couple catalyst 9.10 and ubuntu 9.10 screwed my box so bad that I cannot even enter in failsafe mode!
So I'm going to either fix it with a live cd or definitely pass to Arch Linux
Anyone checked those 9.11 catalyst in Arch64 ?

next time i will test catalyst again will be the 9.12 and the openGL3.2/better wine support...
I'd exploit the constant presence of AMD developers in this forum to tell them what is not working and what features you'd like to see implemented. Even if this leads to nothing...

The only problem is I'm still using my old HD3870, so I never know if their problems affect me.

I believe that they should be more careful when releasing drivers and say that 9.11 has initial support for opensuse 11.2.
If they need any technical information about the problem, they should ask us users with some knowledge to provide them with the necessary logs or info to eliminate problems.
The point is that the new driver is "sh!t" and the old is working at least for me (on two different systems with opensuse 11.2 and HD4670).
