Re: [gentoo-user] Ati-drivers emerge fails.

[Hazen Valliant-Saunders]

1. This is a fresh install from 2008.0 with no previous drivers.
2. How can i get access to fix this in Portage? (Since that's  the
underlying issue).
3. Do we know who maintains this (ATI has a member but are they on this
list?).
