20 This is actually a kernel panic caused by unloading the fglrx module.

22 See: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=113685
23 There are many bugs in b.g.o. take a look. Many things solve this issue
24 for different people. I have tried most of the "solutions" and something
25 has worked but I am not sure what. I only get a kernel panic 1/10 times
26 when restarting/shutting down X.

28 You might want to try the latest testing ati-drivers. I am using 8.23.7.
