[Chimera-users] Fwd: setting or hardware problem?

[Greg Couch]

Hi Jack,

There is a problem with the current AMD graphics drivers, Catalyst 13.9
beta, and chimera.  You need to downgrade to Catalyst 13.1 for Chimera to
work properly.  Usually, bugs like this are fixed by the vendor in the
next release, but AMD has made several releases with this same bug, so
please file a bug report with AMD to increase the chances that it will be
fixed.
