VIDEO_CARDS="ati" is not a valid option. Check "emerge -pv xorg-x11", |
| 15 |
it will list the valid options. You can use "radeon", "mach64", or |
| 16 |
"r128", to bring in xf86-video-ati, aka the open-source "ati" and |
| 17 |
"radeon" drivers. Or you can use "fglrx" to bring in the proprietary |
| 18 |
ATI drivers. |
