I'm not sure how well this reply will work, since I didn't get this
message in a single email, so I can't exactly reply specificly to it.
Hopefully the RE: subject will do it.

The output I got for these Catalysts was:

		Cat 7.10
GL_VENDOR: ATI Technologies Inc.
GL_RENDERER: Radeon X1900 GT x86/MMX/3DNow!/SSE2

		Cat 7.12
GL_VENDOR: ATI Technologies Inc.
GL_RENDERER: Radeon X1900 GT

7.10 is the latest Catalyst that works with the ioq3 that uses SDL.

It looks like it doesn't detect the instruction sets, so then it
defaults to GDI Generic.
