6 At that point you were supposed to follow the migration to modular X guide
7 [1]. The important bits you've missed is setting the VIDEO_CARDS and
8 INPUT_DEVICES variables in /etc/make.conf.

15 That means /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/radeon_drv.so from
16 x11-drivers/xf86-video-ati is missing. That will be pulled in by
17 x11-base/xorg-x11 if VIDEO_CARDS includes radeon. So set those two variables
18 and run:

20 # emerge -va1 --newuse x11-base/xorg-x11
