Well, the radeon-ucode is only for r6xx/7xx chips so pulling it in for
r5xx would be pointless... I just noticed that you have a radeon hd4200
which is a RS880 chip. Not sure
and -tuxonice patchsets.
Maybe stupid questions but is the firmware installed and is it located
in a place where the kernel can find it? I've seen a few mails on Xorgs
list about this and it's usually remedied by installing the firmware (IIRC).
I.e. emerge x11-drivers/radeon-ucode ?

Yes, exactly. The first time you were missing
CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE_DIR, it should point to /lib/firmware if you've

the Xserver doesn't run on the 2.6.36 kernel unless
Kernel Modesetting is selected. This driver requires microcode to be
installed (emerge radeon-ucode). Now, I don't run an initramfs and
because kernel modesetting requires that the kernel handle the
framebuffer it loads the graphics driver before it has
emerge -p linux-firmware on that box to see if there's a blocker.
linux-firmware is blocked by radeon-ucode and rt61-firmware, but now
that I look closer I realize that ifconfig doesn't show an eth0
interface at all even though lspci -v shows:
Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd
I'm guessing that radeon-ucode and rt61-firmware and all the others
are being deprecated in favour of linux-firmware, but i don't recall
seeing an elog on it.
Does anyone know if this is the case? Doesn't seem very Gentoo-like,
although it should minimize package management for the devs which
://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=395319
It should be rolled out eventually, and the overlay won't be necessary.
Cool! :D
I think I've found one item so far that requires udev. My laptop's
graphics chip needs a binary blob from radeon-ucode. That binary blob,
in turn, requires the presence of /usr/lib
/grub.conf
rm /usr/src/linux
ln -s /usr/src/linux-3.2.0-gentoo-r1 /usr/src/linux
re-emerge some modules which look at /usr/src/linux, like (in my case)
x11-drivers/ati-drivers app-emulation/virtualbox-modules \
sys-fs/fuse sys-power/powernowd x11-drivers/radeon-ucode \
sys-process/iotop sys-fs

I use the ati-drivers package, and I'd say there are pretty solid now. I
first started using ati-drivers with my HD2600 card card

.
yes, it is worth using them. Because of proper power management alone.
You might not care about framerates, but the open source drivers use
that would be merged, in order:

Radeon HD 4250, I had to look into my issues with
the open source driver.
It turns out, my problems had two reasons:
- I didn't enable KMS and DRM for radeon in the kernel
- I didn't have x11-drivers/radeon-ucode installed
Both resulted in a fully functioning X server that
- could run glxgears just

Are you running KMS in the kernel and have you emerged x11-drivers/radeon-
ucode (not sure if your card needs it) as per:

display card. I was pretty firmly stuck until Neil B. reminded me of
gummiboot. That did the trick. I couldn't get UEFI to run grub at all here
(nothing very grand about it in this case).
Then the display card. Well, after another 10 days of googling
, and like you I'm getting
the old mouse driver for apparently other reasons. I'm not getting
keyboard but you should be able to use the commands below to determine
why that's happening on your system.
I checked my world file and the only x11-drivers package I have in there is

blobs in the library directory, the kernwl needs udev to figure out
