    Hey all. I read from alot of places when I talked about me still using Omega that I should switch since Omega hasnt updated in ages.

    Now I remember finding a ati install file when I was looking for new Ubuntu 9.10 drivers that said it supported the x1400. (A real ati catalyst driver)

    I cant seem to find it now tho..

    So anyways, whats the best to use for gaming on the X1400 for my Dell E1505. And if you have a link? =) Omega hasnt failed me yet.. but doesnt supply anything new either, so if someone could link me to that ati catalyst driver I did find that was updated. (The one that DOESNT support ubuntu 9.10, I rem a older one kinda did, but you needed the later one for 9.10, which wasnt released)

    Anyways thanks. =)

    Thanks thats what I found for Linux drivers. Of course that doesnt work with the newest ubuntu tho. =/

    But I did find somewhere there one that listed the drivers for Windows. Whats best to use on the X1400 for windows now is there anything better then Omega since?

    http://game.amd.com/us-en/drivers_catalyst.aspx?p=xp/mobility-xp Is this more updated then Omega? (Is it better?)
