X server couldn't start due to the fatal eror: no screens found.

I have read the wiki and knowed that the it lacks of an appropriate driver for my card.
my lspci -k gives information about my video card lists below:
Code:
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 18)
   Subsystem: Acer Incorporated [ALI] Device 055a
   Kernel driver in use: i915
02:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation GF119 [GeForce GT 520M] (rev a1)
   Subsystem: Acer Incorporated [ALI] Device 055a


It turns out that the i915 could't work for my card.
But I don't know what option should I choose.
My kernel version is : 3.2.12
My dot-config file is pasted here: http://pastebin.com/L3KaDiyq

Have you tried searching the forums? You have a common issue that's discussed in at least half dozen threads, possible even more.

Your Xorg log says that it can't find vesa and intel drivers (for X, not from your kernel)

You'll need to emerge these two packages:

x11-drivers/xf86-video-vesa
x11-drivers/xf86-video-intel

and don't forget these, as you'll likely run into this next:

x11-drivers/xf86-input-keyboard
x11-drivers/xf86-input-mouse

emerge those and let us know if that worked.

Emerging xf86-video-vesa won't do anything except give an unaccelerated X with a resolution of 800x600 (or maybe 1024x768).

xf86-input-keyboard and xf86-input-mouse aren't used unless you configure X accordingly. But why do that when xf86-input-evdev handles both mouse and keyboard in a hotplug fashion without requiring any configuration on the part of the user.
To put in simply - the keyboard and mouse drivers are a thing of the past. They do still work, but they've been superseded evdev.
