Hello,
I have recently installed Gentoo 2007.0 on an old Dell PowerEdge 400sc
box. As the title says, I am using ATI Rage XL graphic card with 8MB memory
and Proview PL716s LCD monitor. For some reason, X -configure doesn't give
me a xorg.conf with error
[code]
List of video drivers:
fglrx
Backtrace:

I tried manual configuration with xorgcfg using the syn rage given by the
LCD manual (Horizontal 31-80, Vertical 60-75) and using aticonfig to get a
modified xorg.conf as follows:

I am trying to find a tutorial to fix this and get X11 working. Any input
will be gratefully appreciated.
Thank you!
ps: After posting this to gentoo desktop forum, I found some related
information in this list. But still got a little confused about which I
should use for VIDEO_CARD and USE. Am I supposed to recompile the kernel as
wiki says? It is also possible something else is wrong, since the first
error I have in the log file is about inet6. Sorry for the long mail and
thanks in advance!
