No, no, It's not Mint. It's GNOME3. At the beginning, as an Windows user i thought i'm doing sth wrong, but it seams there are different standards than in M$ stuff. I'm not saying Mint ain't good, because it's very stable and easy to use. Unfortunately it changes nothing in terms of being usable for ATI users... The worst thing about that is it would be almost perfect OS for me if gnome process hadn't been killed almost every time I try to open the menu (top left corner). Of course you could say "so don't use official ati driver", but it's not that easy. Without catalyst, my PC is getting very hot, Archon 2x14cm seems to be running at 100% rpm in idle. In addition i have the audio connected to the LCD which is connected to the pc with HDMI cable. Without catalyst i do not have sound. The last thing - vsync or maybe not even vsync but performance? When i'm moving any window it's not even close to smooth. It's jumping as the frame-rate was 10fps, not 60.frank392 wrote:this is the worst mint release ever
i guess i will stick to 11
It's not the problem of my HW. In Windows 7 or in Ubuntu 10.04lts everything is great and really fast. The same problem exists in Fedora 16 and Ubuntu 11.10. Not only on my PC, but on the notebook too. My notebook has radeon hd4670 and the desktop hd6970. I think gnome devs should spend much more time on ATI cards compatibility. The only difference between "gnome not working" in Mint and Fedora is that when gnome-shell is killed in Fedora it throws an error. Here on Mint nothing happens. Everything disappears and comes back after a while. I'm so disappointed...
Anyone knows is there anything i could do to make it work?
