    the driver says it has support for OpenGL ES 2.0, does this mean it is compliant with the new OpenGL 4.1 standard announced yesterday?

    From a client or server perspective? I have no issues with RDP as a client from my machine, but then I never remote onto it from elsewhere.

    When can we get "proper" Linux support?

    Just look at the AMD/ATI forums, lots of people still using 10.4 and 10.5 beacause of gaming issues with 10.6 and 10.7

    The "server" i.e. both my desktop computers running Windows 7 Ultimate are an RDP server. Both have exactily he same issue and have had it as far as I can remember. After RDPing to a machine, I often cannot get into that machine physically without remotely rebooting it or remotely putting it to sleep and then waking it locally forcing the driver to re initialise.
