--- Comment #45 from Ed Tomlinson <edt at aei.ca> ---
Good news.

I rebuilt linux-git with the newer mc ucode patch and manually replaced the
BONAIRE_mc.bin firmware file and rebuilt my initrd.

uniengine tropical completes at 33fps (fullscreen 1920x1200)
uniengine sanctuary completes at 45fps (fullscreen 1920x1200)

tropical is the test that usually killed things quickly.  It ran at about 30fps
when it worked at all on .14 and about 40fps on .15 with old firmware.  fglrx
manages about 80fps.

That being said the new firmware is not as fluid as the older.  There are times
that there are hesitations when the camera is panning which I did not notice
previously.  However my tests do run without stalling or corruption.

Would you like me to test with and without the patch on .14?

You can add my tested-by to the 'newer mc ucode patch' for linux-git

THANKS!
