It appears to be because DRM is builtin to the kernel. but i cannot find DRM in genkernel --menuconfig all |

The first thing that you need to do is disable DRM in your kernel.
Device Drivers -> Character Devices -> Direct Rendering Manager (DRM)
Either compile it as a module or remove it completely. Then recompile your kernel and install in boot. Boot the new kernel and try again. |
