Yes, VIDEO_CARDS is a USE-Expand variable - each item in VIDEO_CARDS is expanded to an equivalent use flag of "video_cards_<flag>", meaning VIDEO_CARDS="radeon fbdev fglrx vesa" expands into: video_cards_radeon video_cards_fbdev video_cards_fglrx video_cards_vesa These use flags then tell xorg-drivers to pull in the relevant packages. Remove fglrx from your VIDEO_CARDS, do a world-update and depclean (and make sure you check ``eselect opengl`` is set to "xorg-x11") and see how that goes.
