I try to reemerge the ATI drivers for X11, but still the same errors.
as the only messages I see are about radeon, I guess the error is something to do with it, so is there a standard vga driver for xorg ? so I can remove the entry about ati and see if it works

As far as I know, if you have a radeon card you should be using xf86-video-ati instead of ati-drivers. Here's a copy of my xorg.conf just so you can reference it. I'm using a Radeon Mobility 7500

reup,
The vesa driver is good on x86 and amd64.
With Xorg 6.8 you already have it.
With Xorg 7.0 you will need to add vesa to VIDEO_CARDS in make.conf and emerge x11-drivers/xf86-video-vesa

interesting, after installing the x11-drivers/xf86-video-vesa I had better result , but still it failed, now I can log in but it give me only the background, (I use kde but it is the same thing with fluxbox or other desktop manager)
I am now trying to reemerge xorg-server and it gave me back xf86-video-ati (I do have an ati card)
I will see after the emerge if it worked
thanks for your replies

reup,
Since Xorg starts and gives you the graphical log in, your problem is not related to Xorg.
Run revdep-rebuild and try again after that completes. Its a part of gentoolkit, which you may need to emerge

yes, this is not a xorg problem, I just tryed xstart xterm and it works.
I did the revdep-rebuild this morning, and emerge all the one needed except kde-base/qtruby kde-base/korundum x11-libs/qt because tey fail, but now that I knwo this is not a xorg problem, it make sense that thisis a KDE problem, those 3 packet are needed for kde
I will try to emerge a simple blackbox or other and see if I have the same problem

reup,
The choice is not yours to make. By design, applications will use one or the other. You probably need both versions.

well, that is probably my problem, qt4 fail at install, but probably kde 35 is trying to use it
I install as well blackbox and it fail the same way.
I run xdmp between this box and my other gentoo (laptop) and on the broken one, I can open a session from the laptop, while from the laptop, I cannot open a session from the main box.
reemerging qt4 now. will see

I've had this problem before with funny CFLAGS... turns out, fontconfig hated -ftree-vectorize. GCC4 + funny CFLAGS = death, pain and suffering.
Might not be that for you, though.
