10:51 - Autor: pipinNeben dem monatlich veröffentlichten Windows Catalyst Treiber-Update (wir berichteten) hat AMD auch aktualisierte Linux-Treiber zum Download bereitgestellt. Mit diesem werden zahlreiche neue Features wie CrossFireX Support, Adaptive Anti-Aliasing Support, ATI OverDrive Support und ATI MultiView eingeführt.New FeaturesThis release of ATI Catalyst™ Linux introduces product support for the following new operating systems: * CrossFireX support * Adaptive Anti-Aliasing support * Support for new Linux operating systems * ATI OverDrive™ Support for Linux * ATI MultiView™ * Auto Detection and installation of distribution packaging CrossFireX support This release of ATI Catalyst™ Linux introduces support for CrossFireX configurations using the ATI Radeon HD 4800 Series on systems running the Linux operating system. Adaptive Anti-Aliasing support
This release of ATI Catalyst™ Linux introduces Adaptive Anti-Aliasing support for the ATI Radeon HD 4800, ATI Radeon HD 3000 Series, ATI Radeon HD 2000 Series, and ATI Radeon X1000 Series of products installed on systems running the Linux operating system. Adaptive Anti-Aliasing substantially improves image quality by anti-aliasing transparent textures. This option is available in the Catalyst Control Center Linux Edition. Support for new Linux operating systems This release of ATI Catalyst™ Linux introduces support for the following new operating systems: * RHEL 5.2 production support * RHEL 4.7 early look ATI OverDrive™ Support for Linux ATI OverDrive™ maximizes the performance of the graphic processing unit (GPU) on your graphics card. This provides the ability to improve the performance of your GPU, especially if you are using a custom cooling solution.
Caution: Using ATI Overdrive™ to increase the graphics processor or memory clocks above normal limits may result in graphics corruption, data loss or system hangs. If ATI Overdrive™ detects unsafe conditions, it will automatically reduce the clocks. However, ATI cannot guarantee results, and will not be responsible for data loss or other problems that may occur as a result of using ATI Overdrive™. ATI OverDrive™ on AMD Linux driver is a command line GPU overclocking tool for supported graphics adapters. It allows the users to: * Enable or disable ATI OverDrive™ * Get GPU and memory clock range * Manually set clocks within the available range. Note that there * Test clocks with a stress utility * Obtain GPU temperature Graphics cards supported include: * ATI Radeon™ HD 4870 X2 * ATI Radeon™ HD 4800 * ATI Radeon™ HD 4670 * ATI Radeon™ HD 4850 * ATI Radeon™ HD 4550 * ATI Radeon™ HD 3870 * ATI Radeon™ HD 3850 * ATI Radeon™ HD 3830 * ATI Radeon™ HD 3690 * ATI Radeon™ HD 3600 * ATI Radeon™ HD 3470 * ATI Radeon™ HD 3450 * ATI Radeon™ HD 3430 * ATI Radeon™ HD 2600 Note: The ATI Radeon™ HD 2900, ATI Radeon™ HD 3870 X2, and ATI Radeon™ HD 3850 X2 series of products, along with Workstation, and FireStream™ products are currently not supported.
Note: Mobile GPU OverDrive™ support is individual for each vendor, i.e. the same mobile GPU may have or may have not Overdrive 5 support. Please contact your vendor for more information. More details on how to use ATI OverDrive™ can be found in the aticonfig help file. ATI MultiView™ ATI MultiView™ provides the ability to utilize GPUs from multiple adapters on an independent multi-display desktop. It allows a user to configure, manage and use a Multiview configuration under Linux and allows OpenGL applications run on any displays driven by multiple GPUs. ATI MultiView™ provides: * Multi-GPU configuration support * Up to 4 displays support * Enhanced display configuration and selection through the Catalyst Control Center Linux Edition * Administrator shortcut which provides access to configuration options that require root privileges. Root privileges are required for multi-screen configurations, including enabling and disabling certain multi-screen configurations and screen placement. * ATI MultiView™ only works on systems with two identical FireGL™ products which include:
o ATI FireGL™ V7700 o ATI FireGL™ V7400 o ATI FireGL™ V5600 o ATI FireGL™ V5200 o ATI FireGL™ V3700 o ATI FireGL™ V3600 o ATI FireGL™ V3400 o ATI FireGL™ V3350 o ATI FireGL™ V3300 * ATI MultiView™ does not operate with Compiz environments * ATI MultiView™ (released in 8.52/8.53) does not operate with Xinerama enabled Auto Detection and installation of distribution packaging With version 2.0 of the AMD Graphics Driver distribution packaging Application Programming Interface (API), each Linux distribution will have the option of updating their packaging scripts to provide auto detection and installation of the AMD graphics driver. Version 2.0 of the API installation option will automatically generate and install a distribution-specific package using the distribution's package management system, it automatically check for build and install dependencies when generating and installing distribution-specific packages.
Note: This is achieved in supported distributions by using the following command: aticonfig --buildandinstallpkg Version 2.0 enhancements include the following: * Automatic OS detection. Users will be able to generate and install distribution-specific packages without having to provide system-specific information * Dryrun option. Users will have the ability to request a test run of the installer to ensure that all dependencies are met Tip: Dryrun can be added after either --buildpkg or --buildandinstallpkg to simulate those actions. Currently only RedHat, Slackware and Ubuntu support these enhanced options. As more distribution packaging scripts implement the AMD Graphics Driver distribution packaging API version 2.0 this list will grow.

OpenGL CrossFireX™ (QUAD) support – 3 or 4 GPUs in CrossFire™ modeThis release of Catalyst™ introduces CrossFireX™ QUAD support for OpenGL applications. Users with any combination of a ATI Radeon™ HD 3870, ATI Radeon™ HD 3850, and ATI Radeon™ HD 3870 X2 graphics accelerators running with 3 or 4 GPUs will be able to run in CrossFireX™ QUAD mode (when used in a CrossFireX™ compatible PC). Users are also able to run in CrossFireX™ QUAD mode while running in extended desktop mode on the Windows Vista desktop. Catalyst Install enhancement – No reboot required after Catalyst upgrade installThis release of Catalyst™ introduces an enhancement to the Catalyst installer. Users are no longer required to reboot their system after Catalyst has finished installing (as long as the installation is an upgrade from a previous Catalyst install). Performance Improvements
The following performance gains are noticed with this release of Catalyst™.- 3DMark Vantage:10 to 15% gains across all Radeon™ HD 3xxx and HD 2xxx products, with larger gains in specific cases.

16:16 - Autor: NOFXWer kennt das Problem das Problem veralteter Grafiktreiber für Notebooks nicht, der originale Treiber des Chip-Herstellers lässt sich nicht installieren und der Gerätehersteller lässt sich ein wenig mehr Zeit diesen freizugeben.Die Reglementierung, die von Seiten der Hersteller ausgeht und von AMD bzw. ATI in die Originaltreiber eingebaut worden ist, macht es dem Support bei Fehlern leichter, diese einzugrenzen, da nur eine begrenzte Treiberbasis zur Verfügung steht. Für den Kunden ist dies mitunter jedoch sehr ärgerlich, da gerade bei neuen Spielen der Catalyst-Treiber sehr schnell auf diese angepasst wird, die eventuell schon mehrere Monate alte Version des Geräteherstellers jedoch erhebliche Leistungseinbußen mit sich bringen kann. Genau an diesem Punkt setzt der DH Mobility Modder an und bietet die Möglichkeit einen beliebigen Catalyst-Treiber Mobility Radeon-kompatibel zu machen. Dazu wird lediglich ein Catalyst Treiber, z.B. der derzeit aktuelle Catalyst 8.4, MSXML 6.0 und das nicht einmal 2MB große Programm benötigt. Eine detaillierte Beschreibung wie genau die Modifikation am Treiber durchzuführen ist, kann bei DriverHeaven gefunden werden. Danke an Cimex für den Hinweis!
