I swear that the dog ate it!

OK, so basically what your saying is that in 3 days time we'll have the driver? Bugger.. :P

Be patient man, it needs some time to digest...

Problem is, no xorg 7.6 support yet... Supposed to be there in April. No animation on my Lucid for now...

About to install 10.3, but noticed this when I did a --listpkg:

Package Maintainer(s): ATI
Status: Verified
RedHat Packages:
	RedHat/RHEL4_64a
	RedHat/RHEL4
	RedHat/RHEL5_64a
	RedHat/RHEL5

./packages/Slackware/ati-packager.sh: line 56: unexpected EOF while looking for matching `]'
./packages/Slackware/ati-packager.sh: line 406: syntax error: unexpected end of file
Package Maintainer(s): Bob Walmsley <[email protected]>

...hoping for the best as the Ubuntu/Karmic buildpkg seems to have gone OK so far...

Yay! They broke "super" user launch of CCC again:

Failed to execute child process "amdxdg-su" (No such file or directory)

...time to go back and edit in my gksudo version... sigh... why not just give up and go with the flow? i.e. one of these times I need to see if I can look at amdxdg-su and see what's so special about it that it's needed above gksudo... at a guess I'd say that gksudo probably doesn't get installed in Kubuntu, but last time I tried Kubuntu it was a clusterf--k and a major PITA to get rid of.

Anyways for linux so far, so good(minus the expected cockup -- always gotta have something FUBARed in catalyst releases), repeating that compiz now starts up again fine in Ubuntu 9.10 x86-64 w/my 4850.

Windows 10.3 actually worked for me too, other than it likes to black screen near the end of catlyst install apparently and never comes back. (Mobility modder & manual did the same though, but first time that I EVER ran into a video driver that did that in windows... very strange... still doesn't like flame light source/maybe shadows in Oblivious/Drakensang. Really need to make space under linux and try them in wine to see what happens... as I have one area in Oblivious that'll trigger it right from a cold idle GPU start...repeatedly...PITA)
