Try ati-drivers first and it may want to pull in xorg first. In that case, the answer is org. If not, it does not matter. Remember, at some point, after you build a kernel, you have to run modules-update, but surf the various gentoo web pages on Ati to get that answer. follow the main gentoo web page: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/xorg-config.xml http://odin.prohosting.com/wedge01/gentoo-radeon-faq.html <this last pages says that your 9550 card is supported by the ati-binary driver. I'll try and help you thru this, but, realize I'm not whiz at ati-driver obscurity issues..... That said, keep a precise log of what you do, what fails and what works, and maybe between us, we can develop a simple ascii text file that works and is current..... I'll be back online in 3-4 hours to check your progress. Hang in there, James -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
