I just did an emerge on Xorgautoconfig and ran the command, but the |
| 2 |
xorg.conf file it makes doesn't work - it tells me that ATI(0) Adapter has |
| 3 |
not been initialized, and Screen(s) found, but none have a usable |
| 4 |
configuration. |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
It sets Mode 1024x768 at several depths, which I can live with, and default |
| 7 |
mode of 16, which I can also live with. Now if I could just get it to work |
| 8 |
... |

Thanks! |

There is an ebuild Xorgautoconfig specifically for this purpose. The |
| 21 |
generated xorg.conf needs some slight adjustments but seems to give good |
| 22 |
results. |
