I can't do it! the last lines of emerge is:
install: cannot stat `fglrx.ko': No such file or directory

There is no point at all using ati-drivers for r200 type of cards (which 9250) is. 
Open Source driver "radeon" with Mesa3D provides better 2D and 3D accelleration for it.

No useful info posted; assuming dupe.

but on open source drivers beryl go slow, and get slower other aplication using 3D. For example chromium

Likely an misconfiguration, once you get accelleration running you have to enable page flipping in xorg.conf (see: man radeon) and hyperz memory handling in driconf (see: emerge -av driconf). It's actually few times faster with r200 type of cards, and allows you to use AIGLX and remove XGL installation which ati-drivers require..
