    In fact I still can't use the ATI Official driver in Fedora 10 / Fedora 11 / CentOS 5 .
    The latest official driver that compatible with my 2900GT is 8.12 , which is too old and do not support new X.org

    started a topic 2900GT didn't work with both closed and open source driver

    2900GT didn't work with both closed and open source driver

    After I have updating from Fedora 8 to Fedora 12, screen are corrupted
    I tried to install the official driver from AMD website but unfortunately i get a "AMD Unsupported Hardware" with a poor performance start from CCC 9.1

    I have also tried to install other linux distribution like ubuntu and zenwalk , but the AMD official driver still didn't work.

    Now , I can't have a correct display with both closed source driver and open source driver(start from kernel 2.6.30)

    Can anyone please help me
