Wiki users should link their contributed pages here for others to find. Create new categories as necessary if there isn't an appropriate existing one.
Manpages
There is a project writing manpages to document the driver-part and the applications of the proprietary ATI driver for the Debian distribution. The manpages can be installed on every system. Because driver options heavily lack documentation, any help is appreciated to complete these manpages. The sources can be found here.
X.org Support
- X.org 6.8, 6.9, 7.0, and 7.1 are supported by the latest fglrx driver.
- X.org 7.0 page
XGL
- Xgl: A brief rundown on what it brings to the table, plus a How-To on how to get XGL and Beryl up and running on your Ubuntu installation.
Benchmarks
- glxgears is not a benchmark. Neither is fgl_glxgears!
DesktopSetup trouble
If you are using the latest (at the time of this writing 8.20.8) drivers with a DesktopSetup and you are wondering why both monitors (eg. the RGB and DVI output) are both displaying the left side of the bigscreen, try the following option (which is AFAIK not documented anywhere, I guessed it):
Option "ForceMonitors" "nocv"
nocv stands for No Composite Video and resulted in a succesful bigscreen setup with my ATI X300 at a debian amd64 unstable system (after many hours). Options like
Option "ForceMonitors" "crt1,tmds1"
And many other combinations of crt1, crt2, tmds1, tmds2 and notv don't seem to have any result!
