Hello, everyone!
Can somebody help me solve my problem with Xorg on my netbook.
I try to install video drivers for GMA 3600 using info from this theme, but it doesn't help me.
Xorg.0.log says, that there are any drivers and screen avialable.

PS i'm new in Gentoo

You need to enable CONFIG_DRM_GMA3600 in your kernel (press / in menuconfig to search for it) and install xf86-video-modesetting.

This will only give you unaccelerated graphics though. There is another (proprietary) driver from Intel for this device, but installing that is a little tricky.
