Which OS has the support for AMD catalyst driver

Hi All,

i want to run opencl applications on AMD radeon 8670 graphic card,which is presented in my laptop.

As for my understanding, to run opencl applications on radeon GPU we need to install catalyst driver as well.

Could some body suggest me which OS should i install on my laptop.So,that i should get proper AMD catalyst driver.

Thank .

Dear AMD experts,

I need your help regarding this issue.

i again go through the AMD driver installation procedure.

And came to know that fglrx64_xpic_SUSE121 driver is not installing in my laptop.

and also i missed following point as well while installing the AMD fglrx driver.

           " Before trying to install the fglrx package it's better to disable free radeon driver.

            On the boot line add : radeon.modeset=0 blacklist=radeon 3 "

is that fglrx64_xpic_SUSE121 driver not installing ? due to missing the above point "disable free radeon driver before we install the fglrx driver".

is that above reason, i am not able to run the opencl applications as user mode?

Could anybody help me on this issue to go forward.

Thanks..
