Originally posted by schmidtbag View PostI'd rather have video decoding and openCL worked on first before CF, thankfully, both of which are supposedly WIP.
But something to consider.... or rather ponder... would crossfire have any affect on openCL?
At least theoretically, two cards would be faster than one, but if video isn't working in pairs then what about compute?

Thanks for the answers!
You can download the mesa 9.1.8 http://software.opensuse.org/package/Mesa from the xorg reposity
install the kernel 3.11rc from puntostroy http://software.opensuse.org/package/kernel-desktop
install the latest kernel firmware from puntostroy http://software.opensuse.org/package/kernel-firmware
Don't forget to add the radeon.dom=1 at the boot.
It works for me, but there are on ARUBA.
