I managed to install gentoo on my acer travelmate 525te laptop with ATI rage mobility M1 AGP,but I am not able to get the X to run, when i run startx from command line i get a black-brown checked screen with mouse pointer(the normal linux cursor in the shape of "X"),i can move the mouse around but that all it does, no screen ,no icons nothing happens.
just to make sure that my XF86config file is all right i booted my machine with Knoppix,the X was running fine in it,so i copied its XF86config file too but it didn't work either.
I have tried almost everything thats posted on the gentoo forums and some other site but with no luck.
Any idea how to tackle this problem.
thanks
