Xorg.0.log

Hi, i am trying to install ati-drivers on my Macbook8,2.
I have compiled my kernel with i915 with kms, removed opensource radeon stack, installed xf86-video-intel with x11-drivers/xf86-video-intel -sna uxa, and installed ati-drivers (emerge --info attached).
When I try to run X after all info i get this "fglrx: No matching Device section for instance (BusID PCI:0@1:0:1) found" and nothing happens.
My Xorg.0.log display first error as Failed to obtain VBIOS from Kernel! Xorg.0.log attached too.
Any thought about that?
If there is something I can send you, just tell me.

Can you try with more recent ati-drivers, such as 13.12?

ati-drivers is dead, and will not be supported for X.
