Hello,
About radeon, I read and continue on your post
About missing /dev/input/by-id ...
Can you run udev at sysinit ?
Can you provide :
emerge --info
make.conf
rc-update show
Thanks |

If I recall correctly, you should run aticonfig --initial or something to that effect, not X -configure - I can't remember exactly what it is.

Good, this will help to eliminate some of the confusion of what is coming from where 
How do you build your kernel, i.e. do you use genkernel or make 
You mentioned having a problem with depmod when first getting fglrx working. Try rebuilding your kernel in 'text-mode' then check /lib/modules/$(uname -r) and make sure the dates and times for modules.dep etc. match the kernels.

USTruck, that conf snippet is invalid - evdev driver is only for /dev/input/event* nodes.
Also, ' X -configure' doesn't generate anything really useful. |

About evdev : exact but by settings of INPUT_DEVICES="evdev synaptics" (look at begining of post) he needs udev worked
IF he not needs udev ; change to : INPUT_DEVICES="keyboard mouse synaptics"
and rebuild by emerge -uDN
About X -configure http://pastebin.com/vjbRkXga
I use this part of X to look what are detected and settings by default without any conf file
if all devices are correctly detected and settings are what I needs by default, these part are not required
Based on these, like keyboard layout, keyboard options, mouse axis, mouse button, video card specific settings I use /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/XX-device.conf
Under these files I specify what I needs
It's not depend of evdev, this is a new way to handle specific configuration of xorg but xorg continue to work with old xorg.conf
I base these on http://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Xorg.conf |

Hey guys, sorry for the very late reply, but my classes started and I need to work too, so it's very hard to find time to learn gentoo.

Now I'm using fglrx, because at least with it I was able to enter graphic mode, even without keyboard or mouse working. I don't know if I run udev at sysinit, but I think yes because the output of rc-update show list "udev-mount" at sysinit.

Bill, I've used make. The problem with depmod was using Sabayon and the chrooted environment to compile and install the drivers, I think.
So, I must:
| Code: | cd /usr/src/linux
make menuconfig
make
make modules_install
cat /lib/modules/$(uname -r)
depmod -a
cp arch/x86_64/boot/bzImage /boot/vmlinuz-3.6.11-gentoo
make clean |
Is this the correct order? Or I must run depmod -a before check dates for modules?[/code]
