Nightwulf|work: hi all
Terrax121: hi
Terrax121: Anyone know why I can't write in #radeon
Terrax121: It says == Cannot send to channel: #radeon
berxwedan: hello, i have a his hd 4890 turbo
berxwedan: i was wondering if i'd be able to play games with open source driver
adamk: Depends on the game.
berxwedan: mmm
berxwedan: what does it differ from ati's except being open-source
berxwedan: is there a huge performance difference in games?
adamk: Well, the radeon driver (which is what I'd recommend over radeonhd) supports KMS.
adamk: There can be, yes.
adamk: But it all depends on the game.
berxwedan: what about counter-strike source over wine?
adamk: I have no experience with that game in wine with either radeon or fglrx.
adamk: You could check on #radeon to see if anyone else does, though.
berxwedan: is there a list for games those are fully compatible with open-source drivers
berxwedan: *of
adamk: Not that I know of.
adamk: That's also a better question for #radeon, though.
berxwedan: well i've a radeonhd, that's why i joined here
adamk: OK, but I'd still recommend radeon.
berxwedan: ok ok thanks :)
berxwedan: by the way what does KMS stand for?
adamk: kernel modesetting.
berxwedan: what difference does it make?
berxwedan: i'm kind of new to linux
