Re: ATTN: Kernel 2.6.0 and ATI fglrx drivers

does this patch has something to do with the "radeon" driver? (ati radeon) or only for "ati" driver

... because i lost 3d-acceleration since upgrade to 2.6.0-2 using radeon (on 2.4.23 and 2.6.0-1 it worked!!!!)


The impossible missions are the only ones which succeed.
