ati-drivers-3.7.0 ebuild created by wedge, ( Building with USE="qt" doesnt work yet) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
Created attachment 22803 [details] Ebuild
must emerge with USE="-qt" so far
Created attachment 22811 [details, diff] Fix of use qt problem From wedge_: The sources for the control panel are normally placed in /usr/src/ATI, although this isn't true when using an ebuild. However, "/usr/Xserver/hw/xfree86/drivers/fglrx/Radeon_extension_tvout.h" doesn't exist on my system and the file isn't contained in the tarball either as far as I can see Anyway, the ebuild now applies a little patch which fixes it, and the control panel seems to work (for what it's worth, it hasn't been updated). I've uploaded the new ebuild, and you'll also need to download this file and place it in /usr/local/portage/media-video/ati-drivers/files.
When will this be committed to portage? See also, http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=54793&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=1125
give me the time to take a look and test it a bit, wedge thank you
Done with some cleanups, thanks.
Err, lu, check your mail.
I tried this new ati-driver with kernel 2.6.1 but this ebuild tries to emerge kernel 2.4.x. After installed with kernel 2.6.1 (I injected kernel 2.4.x in order to ebuild) I lost 3d accel. and I got this message in Xfree.log: (II) fglrx(0): [drm] created "fglrx" driver at busid "PCI:1:0:0" (II) fglrx(0): [drm] added 8192 byte SAREA at 0xe18c1000 (II) fglrx(0): [drm] mapped SAREA 0xe18c1000 to 0x4008b000 (II) fglrx(0): [drm] framebuffer handle = 0xe0000000 (II) fglrx(0): [drm] added 1 reserved context for kernel (II) fglrx(0): DRIScreenInit done (II) fglrx(0): Kernel Module Version Information: (II) fglrx(0): Name: fglrx (II) fglrx(0): Version: 3.2.8 (II) fglrx(0): Date: Sep 21 2003 (II) fglrx(0): Desc: ATI Fire GL DRM kernel module (II) fglrx(0): Kernel Module version matches driver.

the ati-drivers-3.7.0 have a memory leak, you won't like to use it for the sake of your system stability. - there is an ebuild in portage but is hardmasked for that reason. please WAIT for an updated driver and stick with the 3.2.8 for now
