The paint probably hasn't dried on your fresh new coat of Catalyst 11.10, but it's time to apply an overcoat as AMD has just released its next installment; Catalyst 11.11.
The latest release, now available from game.amd.com, offers greater support for hardware-accelerated Adobe Flash content, as well as a couple of resolved issues - including a fix for corrupted images in iD's latest first-person-shooter, Rage.
