Description Robert Wohlrab 2005-10-13 04:36:38 UTC

New ati-drivers are out. ati-drivers-extra-8.18.6 also needs to be added  
(please use ati-drivers-extra-8.14.13-improvements.patch.bz2, because nothing  
has changed).  
  
The ati site also has a new anti leech script, so you need to use (if it is  
possible) "wget --referer=ati.com" or only use gentoo mirrors).

There are some known issues open. I'll release the ebuild at latest in the weekend.

Comment 3 Anders Storsveen 2005-10-16 03:53:21 UTC

the ebuild says to use fglrxconfig, however I think the new one is aticonfig

Comment 4 Robert Wohlrab 2005-10-16 04:03:31 UTC

Correct me, but following things are removed completely: aticonfig,   
fglrx_pplay.   
   
@Anders Storsveen, fglrxconfig can be used to create a new X-Server 
configuration file and aticonfig to change it (only ati specific parts).

Patch to ebuild for use with X.org >= 6.8.99

I'm currently messing with gcc 4 and X.org 6.8.99, so I had to modify the
ebuild a little. I hope I did this right, at least this works for me (tm).

The patch looks fine, I hope to test it soon.

Comment 7 Jory A. Pratt 2005-10-26 22:11:08 UTC

8.18.8 has been released a simple copy of -r1 will suffice.

Comment 8 Robert Wohlrab 2005-10-27 01:44:18 UTC

No. I dont think so. The version numbers should be equal to the original  
version numbers.  
  
And why must aticonfig and fglrx_pplay be removed? (that's why I didnt closed 
the bug)

in the .8 they will appear, let me upload the files and sync the -extra ebuild
first. If I don't find problems everything will be ready this night.

Comment 10 Robert Wohlrab 2005-10-28 09:01:23 UTC

8.18.8 are there and look ok for me. Can I (or Luca) close the bug?

Comment 11 Jory A. Pratt 2005-10-28 09:43:09 UTC

All versions of concern have been added to the tree. Thanks Luca!
