Hello Everyone!
I'm a Linux user that gave up on ATI some time ago, and switched to Nvidia. Recently, with all the announcements that have been coming out of ATI/AMD, I've decided to go ahead and purchase a new Radeon HD 3850 for my newest system.
So far, it seems to scream. Works fast. I'm fairly happy with it in most regards, and its a huge improvement over my Geforce 7800GS.
That being said, I'm a little bummed out that Full Screen Glow doesn't work in World of Warcraft. I'm running Catalyst 8.01, with all the xorg.conf changes listed on wowwiki.com for Linux ATI usage. I've got the game working perfectly, except that enabling Full Screen Glow doesn't do anything (image is exactly the same as before, no blurring while underwater, no blurring while drinking ale/beer).
Seems like a shame, especially because the card rocks performance wise. Is there anyone out there who has this working properly on an ATI card? If so, how do you do it? Many of the "guides" I've seen on the Ubuntu forums wholeheartedly recommend disabling pixel shaders, and then claim that the game is fully "working", which I think is a shame, because it seems to "beautify" the game.
Googling hasn't found me a lot of answers, and I've tried searching this forum a bit, and haven't found anything.
So; anyone running World of Warcraft, on Linux, on FGLRX, with Full Screen Glow enabled (and working?).
Thanks a bunch!
