Created attachment 229835 [details, diff] Fixed comilation errors for >=2.6.34-rc4
gentoo-sources-2.6.34 is available in portage now. Would it make sense to include then the patch for ati-drivers-10.4 in portage as well?

So I think that it makes sence to include this patch in portage. Or should I report a new bug?
Fixed now =)
