1. don't use xorgconfig - it throws in too much noise
2. add 'evdev' to INPUT_DRIVERS and 'emerge -1 xf86-input-evdev'
3. consider using xf86-video-ati (if you think you are, see if it's actually emerged) |

i used xorgconfig and lowered my resolution choices and it is working. i guess the video card couldn't keep up with monitor.
| Quote: | | Also, try first without any /etc/X11/xorg.conf too. |
tried that, no go.
| Quote: | | consider using xf86-video-ati (if you think you are, see if it's actually emerged) |
it is working now but i will check this.
now i've got to look into resolving some circular dependencies to emerge gnome
thanks for replies

had a resolution problem after i got into gnome. doing above steps, i emerged a couple different ati drivers, and emerged xorg-X11. then ran X -configure. success. until i emerged these drivers editintg my conf files was useless.

| Also, you could remove a lot of stuff inside your /etc/X11/xorg.conf too. |
