I have read "The X Server Configuration HOWTO", and tried: # Xorg -configure but it failed with message: Symbol XAAGetPatternROP_PM from module /usr/lib/modules/drivers/ nsc_drv.o is unresolved! Fatal server error: Caught signal 11. Server aborting I tried "semi-automatic" xorg.conf generation with xorgconfig, but I really do not know what horizontal sync range should I use (did not find anything about it in my notebook documentation). I defined some default values and tried to start x-server, but it failed with: (EE) No devices detected Fatal server error: no screens found I also tried: # xorgcfg -textmode It stops (waited 5min, then I Ctrl-C) while doing: Loading /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/fglrx_drv.o Module fglrx: vendor="FireGL - ATI Technologies Inc." compiled for 6.8.0, module version = 8.21.7 I also tried aticonfig (or aticfc or something similar), after that my notebook completely got frozen (no response to keyboard, not possible to connect with ssh, so I had to do a "hard reset"). What to do now? I really do not know how to write xorg.conf from scratch. Or am I missing something? What is actually proper way to get X11 working? Should I unmerge ati-drivers and first start with "pure" X11? Jarry -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
