26 Currently the system is booted and kde is working but I removed
27 ati-drivers trying to fix it. Now I cannot get any version of
28 ati-drivers to work, despite trying the latest ideas in bug 246672.

31 Any help is appreciated. Precise version numbers of xorg-server
32 xorg-x11 and ati-drivers is what I really need. Just advise
33 on a combo that works with a r580 chipset.....
