AMD Catalyst 7.12 Linux Driver
@ 2007/12/21It's that time of the month again where we get to share with
you all of the details on the latest ATI/AMD Linux driver release. This
month, the ATI Catalyst 7.12 Linux driver (formally, what is known as
fglrx 8.44) brings a host of new changes, mostly in the form of bug
fixes. In total, there are just under a dozen noteworthy bug fixes in
this release -- including addressing 3D acceleration issues on AGP
graphics cards and the well-known OpenGL memory leak that was introduced
with the new driver code-base. In addition, the FireGL graphics cards
are now supported on this new driver code-base.

Even though I like to consider myself something more than a Linux noob, GPU drivers tend to still be the biggest thorn in my side these days.
