Re: [Xen-devel] [Xen-users] GPU Pass Through Comment

[Tobias Geiger <tobias.geiger@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Ray!

BIG THANKS for that information!

I switched from the Catalyst Driver to this FirePro Driver - and the Reboot-
Problems regarding GPU Performance are gone!

Gladly this driver seems to work also for non FirePro-Cards, here it works 
with a Radeon HD 6970 without problems so far.

Thanks for asking AMD - it never came to my mind it could be a driver-only 
solution for this problem... 

Greetings
Tobias

P.S.: just in case someone searches for GPU Passthrough stuff i cc'ed xen-devel
