		+	After the newest ATI catalyst release (8.39.4), fglrx module can be installed on new Xorg (7.2). Unfortunately, the previous ATI driver (8.37.6), nor the latter one (8.38.6), or even the hotfix (8.38.7) were compatible with the X server in the Fedora 7 distribution.

		+	As pointed out at Phoronix.com, the latest release (8.39.4) has very little changes and completely ignored Fedora 7 users who have waited over a month for a functional driver.

		+
		+	Given that this release focuses on packaging support, ATI are still prioritizing cosmetic changes over functional aspects. Whilst packages are a 'nice to have', basic functionality is far more critical.
