Probably INVALID. Is hal running ? Was there a need to emerge x11-drivers/* ? If that was 'Xorg -configure' background should be black.

If you mean by that, that emerge has installed all available drivers then not. If you mean that emerge has downloaded needed drivers then yes. > > If that was 'Xorg -configure' background should be black. Oh sorry, my fault i haven't seen that screen after X -configure for years i believed it's blue. The problem is that i'm getting a black screen and i can't see the mouse pointer. However if i reboot pc while the x server is running i can see the pointer&&move it for few seconds before the pc shuts down.
Looks like you're getting a conflict here: you're trying to load radeon driver and one of the ati-driver modules they don't work together. Check eselect-opengl. Also, I don't see evdev kicking in from hal - are you certain it's started before xorg-server ?
Created attachment 214114 [details] xorg.log with hal running and unmerged vesa&&fglrx drivers. I'm uploading Xorg.log with hal daemon running and without vesa&&fglrx drivers in system. The problem still occures.
Much better. There's still something silly with that "Couldn't load XKB keymap, falling back to pre-XKB keymap", but we'll get to that later. Perhaps your card is simply to new, but make sure you've got CONFIG_DRM_RADEON in your kernel config.

Hmm i hadn't, so i've enable it and now i'm getting white screen with blue/red/green stripes.

(EE) RADEON(0): [dri] RADEONDRIGetVersion failed because of a version mismatch. Huh ? Reemerge libdrm, mesa and xf86-video-ati (perhaps xorg-server too, not sure about that). Now, to cleanup your xorg.conf a bit: comment out InputDevice sections and the related lines in ServerLayout uncomment DRI section

What are your versions of x11-proto/dri2proto, x11-proto/xf86driproto and packages from comment 12 ?
