Hi, right know i am using fedora, but i am planning to buy AMD APU and fedora doesn’t have proprietary drivers in rpmfusion, so i am looking for another distro ,can you tell about your experience with Ati drivers in opensuse ? how easy is to install? does it work with gnome shell ? any major bugs like slow scrolling , video playback , flash videos in youtube.
I cannot answer your other questions, since I don’t use the fglrx driver (it doesn’t support my old Radeon 9600 since ever I’m using it; the open source radeon driver works perfectly fine though), and not even GNOME (I prefer KDE… ).
But the driver is easy to install.
Just use the 1-click install here:
http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:AMD_fglrx
And I think they should work well. Otherwise there would have been a lot of complaints here I guess…

Hi
I would suggest switching to html5 for youtube and also look at the
blog;

My system with an ATI HD7340 works fine as well as the older HD series
with the radeon driver with GNOME shell.
