Description Jonathan Kelly 2003-04-10 01:26:03 UTC 
Hey,

the current ati-drivers-2.9.6 assumes xfree-4.3.0. We need ati-drivers-x.y.z for
xfree-4.2 and xfree-4.3 ... Hmm or have the ebuild work out what xfree is
installed and modify the SRC_URI

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:

The drivers for xfree-4.2 are provided by ati-drivers-2.5.1-r1 - if you know where to get more current drivers for this xfree version, please tell us.

What, did you think I was making this up?
Comment 3 Jonathan Kelly 2003-04-10 02:52:49 UTC 
Oh, go to www.ati.com ... find a driver and try Fire GL 8800 as the product.

no, sorry about closing this.
Comment 5 Patrick Kursawe (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-04-10 03:31:54 UTC 
Sorry, but I had tried three different cards and didn't find this version. My fault.
Comment 6 Luca Barbato gentoo-dev 2003-05-22 13:31:47 UTC 
is still that one an issue?
Comment 7 Luca Barbato gentoo-dev 2003-06-08 17:05:35 UTC 
no reply and I still don't see the issue here.
