Created attachment 81124 [details, diff] Patch to xorg-x11-6.8.99.15-r4 to allow compilation on AMD64
The 6.8.99.15 version of xorg has the drivers for the Radeon Mobility X700 card. If you are running hardened 64-bit Gentoo, the ATI drivers and the common alternatives will not work due to both the 64-bit nature of the machine and the hardened kernel which prevent certain things (like text relocations). However, after running 6.8.99 for 6 months on hardened 64-bit Gentoo without any issues, I decided to submit a patch to the ebuild so others can try it out. For additional details, you can see my original blog post here: http://kayandee.blogspot.com/2005/10/laptop-wonders.html
There are no plans to touch the 6.8.x ebuilds any further, and this particular version will disappear from the tree very soon. Any reason you're not using 7.0 instead?
Shouldn't be a problem with modular X.
