0.9.7 is the developement release which lead to 0.9.8.

For the record, my GPU locked up when it was idle because the idle frequency was too small. I update the bios to change the idle frequency now it is fine. However I lost low-power stuff...

Thanks for the reply.

Hmm, What's your GPU, mine GT240, it can freeze my X when using KDE 3D Desktop effect or after i played game then i logout from KDE.
with Beta driver, my PC doesn't freeze anymore after playing Game, but i don't know about 3D Desktop effect, i'am not test it yet.

It is an AMD HD5770. This kind of issue is often related to the "quality" of fabrication of the chips (not a chip brand or whatever), some transistors are too slow (or too fast) somewhere. Drivers tend too change internal frequency/voltage (note temperature have also an impact) so they can make it work.

Thanks fot the reply, i got new knowledge now.
hmm, it's seem my card have low "quality" fabrication too, i read user feedback in New Egg, Zotac GT240 series have driver issue too.

AFAIK, Pcsx2 using Cg "things" from Nvidia, it's fine to run under AMD Radeon based card?

btw, i but this GT240 because it low power consumption stuff (arround 60watt max, good for HTPC), the highest performace in GT220 , GT230 and GT430 and,
VDPAU stuff ( i like watching anime with mplayer rather than playing game ).

Cg was create by nvidia but it runs also on amd gpu. The bad things is the freeness. Lots of windows application are compiled with Intel compiler but they still run fine on any amd cpu. (except when they added a check of cpu ID to disable optimization on amd cpu which is illegal). Anyway there is branch that can be compiled with GLSL instead of Cg.

One very stupid thing, there is lots of way to overclock the max clock/voltage, but nearly no easy way to tune the idle frequency or reduce some parameters (can be increased only). Fortunately for me we can hack then flash GPU bios/firware nowadays.

So Cg can run in amd gpu, now, perhaps in the future i can try amd gpu.
hmmm, which is better? Cg or GLSL?

You right, My Motherboad dooes not have downvolt capability, my previsious Mother board (Winfast k7ncr) can be DownVolt.

I grabbed from svn today and when I run 'make' I get this below;



THANKS

P.S. I got it, I updated glew from 1.5x to 1.7.0 and it compiled...
