I did, had to go back to 9.2 though, there were some strange artifacts
(textures were sometimes bizarre) on few games and in xbmc , not on desktop.
However, dpm was still working fine and that's the point of this topic I think
:)
Performance and mesa features will come in time I guess.
Main thing for me is dpm, powersaving.
I mean, beside debian wheezy I can't even use catalyst, it's possible with a
painful downgrading of xorg but I don't like that.
With open drivers I can now use any distro without overheating.
Yeah, opengl sucks (mesa) at the moment but things might change soon.
