Thanks for the tip. As it turns out I already knew about this. It's
just that AMD/ATI just released a brand new driver package this month,
and I wanted that:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ apt-cache policy fglrx-kernel-src
fglrx-kernel-src:
Installed: 8.33.6-1
Candidate: 8.33.6-1
Version table:
*** 8.33.6-1 0
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
8.28.8-4 0
400 http://debian.uchicago.edu etch/non-free Packages
This is also what I'm waiting for. I see that sid currently has 8.31
which doesn't do my Radeon X1600 Pro any good. 8.33 is the first
version to fix the xvideo problem so I can use tvtime with x.org.
You may have misunderstood. When I said I wanted 8.33, I meant
that I installed ATI's proprietary driver by compiling it myself,
instead of using the Debian 8.28 package. I didn't mean that I'm
still _waiting_!
I found it terribly easy to install, though I've done it before so
maybe I'm just getting used to it. I can tell you the steps I used,
if you're interested....
