Try to reemerge the ati-drivers. In an earlier mail it seems that ati's GL-lib didn't compile correctly. Do 'ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge ati-drivers' as one line. Then do opengl-update ati. And restart X by doing 'ps -u root -ao pid,comm | grep X', then 'kill -SIGHUP processid' where processid is the number you get from the first command. > HB> 2) kernel misconfigured so driver does not work (main issue is that DRM > HB> must be off) > > How do I tell that? I have not had any problems with my compiled-in DRM.
