Erwin_Br Posted June 18, 2004 STarting september, I'll be a device driver programmer at ATI.Be nice to me, or I shall crash all your computers! muwahaha I'm an nVidia whore anyways, so na-na! Ironically, it's the poor driver support issue of ATI in the past that made me decide to switch to nVidia. I hear it's better now, though. Anyway, congratulations! --Erwin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RLacey Posted June 18, 2004 STarting september, I'll be a device driver programmer at ATI.Be nice to me, or I shall crash all your computers! muwahaha Good. Stop making drivers that keep resetting the AGP setting. My card crashes the system if AGP is set above 4x, and yet EVERY NEW VERSION resets it! On a more serious note, congrats!

Jayel Posted June 18, 2004 Thanks you guys Good. Stop making drivers that keep resetting the AGP setting. My card crashes the system if AGP is set above 4x, and yet EVERY NEW VERSION resets it! Well, that's not my department I'll mostly be doing monitor signal input/output stuff. (I won't know the exact details until I start working) But I'll certainly look into it if it comes across. I suspect the job won't be that much fun. Mostly likely bug fixing already existing drivers. Still, it's ATI, so I should shut up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MrHoatzin Posted June 18, 2004 I hear that at ATI they have crazy furry orgies every friday after the work hours. The newbies and code monkeys have to dress as big bird. Just something I heard, you know... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shbazjinkens Posted June 18, 2004 Congrats! I used to be not so fond of ATI because an incompatibility with OpenGL caused Blender to slow and crash minutes after opening. Then the Blender.org programmers sent some hate mail and ATI sent 5 free cards over to help identify the problem. After a few weeks they figured out what it was and the problem is now solved, so thanks ATI! I still have a Geforce4 in my laptop though, and don't really intend to change it.
