Feb 27, 2008 Linux loading wrong resolution with ATI card

If you recently made changes to your display settings on a linux distro while using an ATI video card, the chances are good that you may come to realize just how badly ATI video cards are with linux. Your resolution or refresh rate may be out of bounds during bootup which can be very frustrating especially for a newbie. Here is a solution that worked for me to overcome this issue.

Dec 21, 2007 ATI releases new Catalyst 7.12 drivers for XP, Vista, and Linux

I was pretty excited to see a new release of this driver since I am using an ATI card with linux that works less than perfect. Unfortunately, I am already disapointed with this driver and i have not even installed it yet. Unlike the new release of Nvidia's Updated Drivers that came with a list of new features and improvements, the new ATI Catalyst download page presents you with a nice list of known issues, which probably is only touching the tip of all issues currently unknown.
