| New ATI Proprietary Linux Driver Installer
|
| The new ATI Proprietary Linux Driver Installer makes installing the ATI
| Linux driver a much simpler and user friendly experience. The installer
| provides for automatic and custom driver installations. Further, the ATI
| Proprietary Linux Driver Installer provides an option to generate
| distribution specific driver packages.

Instead of wasting time by writing a GUI for the driver installation
they should eliminate existing bugs: suspend/resume is still broken.
Great! Now I can install the broken driver by pushing the mouse around.

| New ATI Hardware Product Support
|
| This release of the ATI Proprietary Linux driver introduces support for
| the following ATI Products:
|
| * Radeon® X800 XL
| * Radeon® X850 PRO
| * Radeon® X850 XT
| * Radeon® X850 XT Platinum Edition
|
| Linux 2.6.11 Kernel Support
|
| This release of the ATI Proprietary Linux driver introduces driver
| compatibly with Linux 2.6.11 kernel.
