I'm not sure at all, but I wonder if this driver can compile with the
kernel 2.6.18 which is not yet stable ? I never used ati_driver, but
they are not known to update their driver frequently. ;-)
Even with nvidia, who are more responsive, we sometimes have to wait few
days or week after a driver compatible with the latest stable kernel. So
with -rc versions... ;-)
