If the Intel video card is working correctly, then you should only need to
adjust which driver X uses when it starts. This can be changed within
/etc/X11/xorg.conf. The ATI driver should be called fglrx which is
installed when you emerge ati-drivers. It's strange that it can not find
the driver, though. If it's possible, can you attach the error message? The
ati-drivers package also comes with a tool, aticonfig, which may help
auto-configure xorg.conf, as well.
