Only reason why I participate this topic it's because I want AMD to fix their driver and want to see more news on moving more resources towards proper driver. So I seen this news and it's message I can read: hey AMD, fix this! Unfortunately fanboys fail to see this and only see some "Nvidia trolls".Last edited by _SXX_; 21 July 2014, 09:14 PM.

I bet the problem with this particular GPU could be a stupid typo somewhere in the code as was in a case with dpm on cayman (single line patch fixed a crash on it)...

Originally posted by Kivada View PostNo need, the docs are already there, there aren't that many Linux users using high end GPUs to put it on the high priority list. Give it another year, Star Citizen, Metro Complete Pack, Civilization: Beyond Earth, Witcher 3 and whatever else gets announced will provide a need for a focus on the high end GPUs sold in the hundreds of thousands as well as the low and mid range that have sold in the millions.
It would work stright away, if it was no problem to implement right . Simply, devs still does not know why it does not work . Until someone figured out why .

Originally posted by _SXX_ View PostR9 290X / 290 was named as "Volcanic Islands" so I think they're different, but it's looks like both GCN 2.0 so I likely wrong here.
7790, 260, and 290 are all Sea Islands.
The rest of the SI cards (7xxx,270,280,etc.) were all Southern Islands. I think.

All the HD7xxx cards were GCN 1.0.
As for GCN 2.0, rumor has it we'll see it in August w/ Tonga (mid-range).
