A step backwards
I'm desperate to put my HD5870 mobility radeon to use but will be going back to xf86-video-ati drivers.
On 11.11 drivers I had full system deadlocks (only :|) randomly; sometimes when resuming from a suspend. Now the 11.12 drivers lock consistently on resume: rendering my "mobility" practically worthless. Flash videos still don't work in full screen mode (they most certainly do on the xf86 drivers) and of course there's no KMS.
So cheers AMD. So much for caring about customer experience. You could really up your game with good Linux support (just imagine, an army of nerds singing your praise...), but still you fail to deliver.
