yum search drv-ati prooduced
xorg-x11-drv-ati.i686 : Xorg X11 ati video driver

yum provides xorg-x11-drv-ati.i686 produced
Warning: 3.0.x versions of yum would erroneously match against
filenames.
  You can use "*/xorg-x11-drv-ati.i686" and/or
"*bin/xorg-x11-drv-ati.i686" to get that behaviour
No Matches found

which makes no sense to me.
