Fellow Gentooers,<div><br></div><div>although I am very happy running a Gentoo box, sometimes I bump into some difficulties, esp. when updating packages. This time I am having a hard time reconfiguring my video card, which was fine but is not anymore after the last system update I&#39;ve made. Gnome session goes up as usual but the resolution is not fine and monitor complains about not being in the recommended mode.</div>

<div><br></div><div>My video driver is an ATI Radeon 9600 (RV350) and somebody has already updated the section on the Gentoo wiki <a href="http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/Radeon#Kernels_.3E.3D3.0.0" target="_blank">http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/Radeon#Kernels_.3E.3D3.0.0</a> informing that there might be incompatibilities concerning the RV350 firmware. I just don&#39;t have enough understanding of the video related parts of the system to tweak and fix this issue. How should I proceed when I have a problem of this sort?</div>

<div><br></div><div>How do I know what is the video backend in my system? Is Xorg the only one possible? What can I do to fix this problem?</div><div><br></div><div>Regards,</div><div>depoisdasdez</div>
