AMD announced two days ago, September 28th, the immediate availability for download of the AMD Catalyst 11.9 video driver for Linux platforms.

The new AMD Catalyst 11.9 driver fixes a few GNOME 3 issues, but most of them are still there. Moreover, it appears that many KDE SC 4.x users are having lots of problems with the new driver.

As the GNOME 3.2 desktop environment has just been released, AMD did not had the chance to test the new AMD Catalyst 11.9 video driver on it. Therefore, users will encounter various issues.   The AMD Catalyst 11.9 video driver has support for the following Linux-based operating systems: Red Hat Enterprise Linux, Novell SUSE Enterprise Linux, OpenSuSE Linux and Ubuntu Linux.   Download the ATI/AMD Linux Display Drivers 11.9 right now from Softpedia.
