As usual, AMD didn’t published any release notes for the ATI Catalyst 12.6 (fglrx 8.98) video driver, but it brings support for application profile, support for Linux kernel 3.4, and various other small bugfixes. Moreover, AMD Catalyst 12.6 removes support for old graphics cards, such as the R600 and R700 GPUs ( Radeon HD 2000/3000/4000).
