Thanks for the info. |
15 |
It really looks like the 8.12 is more recent than the 8.54.3 after all... |
16 |
I'm going to try to install this one and I'll get back to you. |

|
18 |
As to GPU programming, I'm certainly there too! |
19 |
However, there is another obstacle on the way, the AMD Brook+ and Cal |
20 |
toolkits seem to be linked to glibc-2.2.5 !! That's way too old for |
21 |
Gentoo. |
22 |
Perhaps some Gentoo expert can point us the less inconvenient way to |
23 |
work around that one. |
