Hey all!

I just installed Gentoo, all works okay, but I can't get the ATI drivers to work from my xorg.conf. If anybody has a working ATI driver (run fglrxinfo, it should state something about ATI), could you post me the:

>Modules
>Screen
>Device
>Monitor

sections?

I just wanna compare and see where I went wrong.

That's why it's about the Linux driver :)

The Linux support of ATI is still a bit lacking, but it's pretty bad now that I can't get them to run. ATI support doesn't work, I want fglrxconfig back... ;)

The official Gentoo installation guide is obsolete. I really miss the fglrxconfig feature. It rocked! it just made it work everytime. Now I have to do all I can to make the dang driver work....

Yeh, sorry, short answer, long version:
AGP - GeCube ATI Radeon 9600XT 256MB
