23 Change the above to:
24
25 VIDEO_CARDS="intel i965 modesetting"
26
27 (not sure if modesetting is necessary)
28
29 Enable the corresponding kernel drivers, but not for framebuffer - see here:
30
31 https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Xorg/Configuration
32
33 and recompile and install your new kernel.
34
35
36 Run emerge -uaNDv world which will remerge the necessary xorg drivers. Reboot
37 and it should work.
