-> fglrx has it's own dri module called fglrx_dri.so. Do you have this
in your module path?

Just noticed this in your later mail:

(WW) fglrx(0): ***********************************************
(WW) fglrx(0): * DRI initialization failed!                  *
(WW) fglrx(0): * (maybe driver kernel module missing or bad) *
(WW) fglrx(0): * 2D acceleraton available (MMIO)             *
(WW) fglrx(0): * no 3D acceleration available                *
(WW) fglrx(0): ***********************************************

Did you compile the ati-drivers against the kernel you're intending to
use? Also, do you have pcie bus support enabled? I assume your card is
not an AGP card... Did you get any warnings about kernel configuration
when you compiled the ati-drivers? Check your emerge logs...

Btw, I'm running 32-bit here so there may be some differences (like
module paths as others have mentioned).

Attaching my xorg.log in the hopes that you may find something useful
out of it.
