Hi there,
I have no clue why downloading ati-drivers fails. I always get redirected to
http://support.amd.com/en-us/download/incomplete
no matter what version of ati-drivers I want to install.

Problems like that are sometimes caused by gentoo mirror servers that
are having technical problems.
Are you having similar trouble with any other packages?
You can specify your preferred mirrors by adding a line like this to
your make.conf file:
GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://gentoo.oregonstate.edu http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/gentoo"

Thanks for the suggestion. I installed netselect, changed the mirrors and now
it works :-)
