Where can I find old version of the ATI proprietary driver?


My computer have problems with the lastest one, even I just modified one line of a working xorg.conf file (just changed "vesa" to "frglx"), there was refresh rate issue.

(even the windows ATI driver has refresh rate issue)

So I think it is the driver's problem.

And i want to download the older one that worked for me.

Where can i find that/those?

Thanks

ATI driver

Hello hkl8324

What ATI video card do you need a driver for?

I have older ATI cards in some computers here, and there are no drivers for them, other than the options in xorgconfig.

ATI mobility Radeon 9200

I have problems with the lastest catalyst driver (actually i can only use omega-driver, b/c it is a
mobility Radeon) even when I am in windows. (The refrash rate went crazy...)

Same problem with the linux deiver.
