Hello,

   

Well, an intel based portable with a radeon 9000 was working fine
with a 2.6.12-gentoo-r9 kernel until this morning. X(kdm) would
not start. I logged in (console) and entered 'startx' and got something
very strange:

First I had to comment out the { Load  "speedo"  } line, then the next
problem was(/var/log/Xorg.0.log):

'Symbol drmGetClient from module
/usr/lib/modules/drivers/radeon_drv.o is unresolved'

I also get:
(**) Keyboard1: CustomKeycodes disabled
(WW) No core pointer registered
(II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "Keyboard1" (type: KEYBOARD)
No core pointer

Fatal server error:
failed to initialize core devices

Checking /etc/X11/xorg.conf it is otherwise as it was
(except for speedo) commented out in the fonts section.

I did a emerge -uD world yesterday. 
I tried the older 
2.6.gentoo-r4 kernel, which worked fine for weeks
and it gives the same problem, with identical results.

I rebuilt the 2.6.12-gentoo-r9 kernel with radeon
detailed debugging turn on and here is what I get:
