I updated to kernel 2.6.25-r6 and xf86-video-ati-6.8.0-r1 no longer compiles. Prior to this I have been able to build for my ATI tech RV 280 [Radeon 92000] (rev 01) video card with no problem. My make.conf has VIDEO_CARDS="ati" (which has been for years - I tried to change this to "radeon" but still same problem), but I added "dri" to USE in this build. I have not changed anything in my xorg.conf file.

(In reply to comment #2) > Created an attachment (id=160967) [edit] > ebuild environment > This seems to have been fixed by running an "emerge -uD world". Now xf86-video-ati compiles successfully. Display manager fails on boot but comes up okay with startx.
With same problem, I did only reemerged x11-proto/videoproto and updated x11-proto/xproto (from 7.0.7 to 7.0.10) and it helped too. So I suppose there is missing dependence on some newer x11-proto/xproto version - can't say which one, because someone already deleted 7.0.8 and 7.0.9 from servers.
Building xf86-video-ati-6.8.0-r1 fails for me with xproto 7.0.7 on a ppc. File radeon_crtc.c needs type CARD64 to be defined which was not the case in file Xmd.h of xproto 7.0.7 on my 32-bits ppc arch. This is solved in xproto 7.0.10. Hence a dependency of xf86-video-ati-6.8.0-r1 over a version of xproto that defines CARD64 on all archs seems missing.
Since 7.10 xproto is oldest version in main tree i am going to close this one as fixed.
