That means you have not removed ati-drivers.  It might be they interfere 
with X.  First, unload them:

   modprobe -r fglrx

Then uninstall them:

   eselect opengl set xorg-x11
   emerge -C ati-drivers

And then remove what's left of them:

   rm -r /etc/ati
   rm /lib/modules/YOUR_RUNNING_KERNEL/video/fglrx.ko

I hope you have done an "emerge -auDN world" after you changed the 
VIDEO_CARDS settings in make.conf?
