Hi,
i understand that AMD gpus are not support but....having installed the
latest drivers(beta). i get the following error:

found bundled python: F:\05BLENDERrevisions\Blender
2.61\blender-2.61-release-wi
ndows64\blender-2.61-release-windows64\2.61\python
read blend: C:\Users\nazim\Desktop\test.blend
Compiling OpenCL kernel ...

calclCompile failedError: Creating kernel kernel_ocl_path_trace failed!

Can someone re-review blender cycles code... i.e. against Codexl and other
similar software.

Kind Regards,
Nazim

PS @*Przemyslaw Golab---we got to remember that AMD are planning
for Heterogeneous computing(according to some slides)...*
*this may mean that they'll scrap development on GPU orientated opencl(as
they believe its already at a good(for small kernels))*
*and push more towards **Heterogeneous computing which from what i
remember(from AMD slides)** would open doors to the sharing*
*of cpu and gpu ram + other good things.*
*so i believe opencl should be enabled regardless of the device type....
cycles should make the first to using any device for opencl: **
Heterogeneous computing*
