Thank you for your posts. |

OK, I tried starting over again as when I wrote the above post, I wasn't |
| 27 |
trying to use the ati-driver. So I emerged ati-driver. However, when |
| 28 |
attempting to load the fglrx I get an "Operation not permitted error" (I |
| 29 |
remember this now). I am logged on as root. Please see this output: |

FATAL: Error inserting fglrx |
| 49 |
(/lib/modules/2.6.21-gentoo-r3/video/fglrx.ko): Operation not permitted |

|
| 51 |
So, I am confused. What exactly should "VIDEO_CARDS=" setting be in |
| 52 |
/etc/make.conf? ="radeon"? ="fglrx"? ="radeon fglrx"? I think I need to |
| 53 |
be sure I have everything set right, be sure to un-emerge any |
| 54 |
conflicting ports, and then re-emerge the proper ports. Can someone |
| 55 |
please point out the steps? |

Thanks, |
