My understanding is that ati-drivers expects /usr/src/linux to contain
the source of the currently running kernel.

I'm running a 2.6.28 kernel.  I have downloaded 2.6.30 and built that
but have not yet rebooted.  "emerge ati-drivers" failed with 2.6.30
in /usr/src/linux.  Changing directory names allowed ati-drivers to
build happily.
