    Phoronix: ATI Radeon 6.7.195 Driver Release

    Alex Deucher has pushed out another release candidate for the xf86-video-ati driver designed for the pre-R500 ATI Radeon GPUs (not to be confused with RadeonHD). In total there are 29 changes for the xf86-video-ati 6.7.195 release candidate -- 19 of them are targeted for the Radeon driver, 9 for the Mach64, and one being for the rc410.

      The latest radeon drivers have been giving me garbled displays after the display is turned off with the lid switch or if it goes into hibernate/sleep.

      Basically the screen looks as if every 2-3 vertical lines of pixels are swapped with the next line giving some wacky effect.

        Radeon 6.7.195

        I tried to run xvidtune but it can't apply any setting. Modeline in xorg.conf doesn't work.

        However i.e. xmame and opengl are much better than 6.7.192. I get 53/53 fps with 6.7.195 and 36/53 with 6.7.192!
