1 Great solution. I wish my parents did that more often. I also have an
2 ati radeon xpress 200m. This is what I did to get it working:
3
4 emerge ati-drivers
5 aticonfig --initial /etc/X11/xorg.conf
6
7 restart xorg. If that doesn't work, then I had to
8 echo "x11-drivers/ati-drivers ~amd64" >> /etc/portage/package.keywords
9 emerge ati-drivers

11 You have to have DRM compiled as a module in the kernel. Sorry, I didn't
12 read the rest of the post, so I don't know what you tried, but I hope
13 that helps.
