Re: (X)(L)ubuntu (MATE) 17.04 Zesty Zapus

I finally got around to installing the RC7 version. I am running it with the latest 4.12 kernel that Sinan made. Works very :-) Still no 3D acceleration on my Radeon 270X but that was to be expected. Right? I am using the fbdev driver in xorg.conf I now have sound (I think it is the kernel) :D. One ...

Re: (X)(L)ubuntu (MATE) 17.04 Zesty Zapus

I have installed and have it running (with the latest 4.11rc3 kernel). Could not get rsync to work properly so I ended up restoring the image to a new partition with the builtin disk tool. Four observations: ~ No 3d acceleration on my R9 270X ~ I have tried with both the fbdev and the radeon driver ...

Re: (X)(L)ubuntu (MATE) 17.04 Zesty Zapus

I am running the latest 4.10rc7 kernel by toslm on a 16.04 install. X5000, 4gb of ram and a R9 270x gpu. It may be me but I have a strange problem with 3D.

Re: Kernel 4.10

Thank you to Sinan for the 4.10 RC1 kernel :-).

Unfortunately I have the same problem as with the 4.9 kernels above RC5. My R270X videocard is not supported.

My wish for the new year: I kernel with support for my R270X videocard and support for my Asus BT211 bluetooth dongle :-)
