11.3-RC1 with ATI Catalyst

Hello!

I just installed 11.3-RC1 on my laptop which has a Radeon HD 5470. As the only driver that supports the latest Radeons is the proprietary Catalyst I decided to install the latest one, 10.6. I managed to get the driver compiled and RPM created. The kernel driver works fine but Xorg gives following error “undefined symbol: resVgaShared”. Is the Catalyst compatible with X Server 1.8.0 or should I wait for officially supported drivers?

Catalyst 10.6 just does not support latest X Server. The only thing you can do is wait.
