You fell confortable installing the ati-drivers manually?, if your aswer is |
7 |
Yes, then: |
8 |
|
9 |
1.- Disable all support for ati in the kernel |
10 |
|
11 |
2.- Enable the framebuffer console like |
12 |
http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_fbsplash, because I know (for sure) you want a |
13 |
grubsplash and bootsplash :D : |
14 |
|
15 |
3.- Unmerge all ati driver you have installed. |
16 |
|
17 |
4.- Execute manually the installation and finally aticonfig --initial, and |
18 |
startx. |
