![]() So, do you know anything about the free radeon driver which will be included in openSUSE 13.2 ?ġ) Does it offer a good support of the latest AMD APUs ?Ģ) I heard that the free radeon drivers were now very close to the AMD proprietary driver, for performance as well as for features support (hardware acceleration / direct rendering, etc.). So, I guess that the fglrx package which will be available for openSUSE 13.2 will be either bugged (if based on Catalyst 14.6 Beta) or not convenient for latest APUs (if based on 14.4). But it's rather heavy bugged, and above all it won't work on openSUSE 13.2 since it doesn't support a linux kernel > 3.13 (and openSUSE 13.2 will come with kernel 3.17). If we want to install the AMD proprietary driver, the only one available is the Catalyst 14.6 Beta we can download on AMD website, released in july as well. In fact, I it seems that Linux support for this APU is rather difficult at the moment. ![]() ![]() I wasn't able to start or install openSUSE 13.1 with this APU, since it is not recognized by this "old" version. ![]() I recently bought a brand new AMD APU A8-7600 (released in july), with integrated graphics Radeon R7.
