3D Quality poor - Ati Mobility Radeon 9700 & SuSE Linux 10.0
Hi everybody,
My knowledge with Linux is very restricted.
I 've installed the ati driver as per instructions posted with ati & Novel and I do now have 3D support. However the Kernel agp doesn't let fglrx agp to take over. Do you think that's the problem with the low quality 3D and if yes,how to rectify it.
