Ah, OK - I'll investigate how to do that under Gentoo. I've never ever
used a git driver before and 6.13.2 is the latest thing in portage.
Is by chance a new release of xf86-video-ati imminent? I could
certainly wait a week or two for this if something is due out soon. If
it's going to be longer then I'd like to figure out how to get it onto
the system now.
Cheers,
Mark
