“Not only was there this Linux support via the Catalyst
driver, but there was even open-source support in the X.Org driver
the very same month. In the months that followed, they then
introduced CrossFire support, OverDrive, and other features to put
their Linux Catalyst suite closer to their Windows driver. This
morning AMD is announcing a high-end refresh of the RV770 GPU that
will be known as the RV790 and is found in the Radeon HD 4890
graphics card. Is AMD continuing to play ball with Linux? We will
tell you this morning as we look closely at the ASUS Radeon HD 4890
on Ubuntu Linux.”
