The update from x11-drivers/xf86-video-ati-18.0.1-r1 to x11-drivers/xf86-video-ati-18.0.1-r2 has changed the monitor names and breaking all arranged layouts and xrandr scripts. The old naming was from xrandr --listmonitors: Monitors: 3 0: +*DisplayPort-1 1920/518x1200/324+1680+0 DisplayPort-1 1: +DisplayPort-2 1680/433x1050/271+0+0 DisplayPort-2 2: +VGA-0 1680/474x1050/296+3600+0 VGA-0 The new one is LVDS-1, DP-2, DP-3 making all saved layouts invalid. This was solved by downgrading to x11-drivers/xf86-video-ati-18.0.1-r1. Reproducible: Always
Are you 100% sure? r1 vs r2 is not supposed to be any sort of a functional change.

I see, could be a false positive, as the issue was resolved by restarting with the older xf86-video-ati, but maybe just a weak detection. Going to re-evaluate with the recent xf86-video-ati...
Without comparing the -r1 vs. -r2 diffs and only testing from highlevel I need to reconfirm this. Several times switching back to -r1 and back to -r2, always restarting xdm, the issue is every time reproducible. However on this hardware I always had several issues that I can workaround. That is booting the machine with X, the X server stays black and I need to switch to a F1 terminal and back to F7 to make it appear. Please note the kernel syslog and the changed monitor naming in 2 independent X sessions, one with -r1 and one with -r2: # qcheck xf86-video-ati ; xrandr --listmonitors ; tail -n 50 /var/log/everything/current |grep 'kernel.*\(radeon\|drm\)' Checking x11-drivers/xf86-video-ati-18.0.1-r1 ... * 19 out of 19 files are good Monitors: 3 0: +*DisplayPort-1 1920/518x1200/324+1680+0 DisplayPort-1 1: +DisplayPort-2 1680/433x1050/271+0+0 DisplayPort-2 2: +VGA-0 1680/474x1050/296+3600+0 VGA-0 Jul 24 08:27:38 [kernel] radeon_dp_aux_transfer_native: 74 callbacks suppressed Jul 24 08:27:39 [kernel] [drm:0xffffffff8132f37e] *ERROR* gem object lookup failed 0xc Jul 24 08:27:39 [kernel] [drm:0xffffffff8132fe0c] *ERROR* Failed to parse relocation -2!

From the other bug report (bug 662240) I see that you have "-Wl,-z,now" in your LDFLAGS. One thing that changed in x11-drivers/xf86-video-ati-18.0.1-r2 is that "-Wl,-z,lazy" is not appended to LDFLAGS, so the driver will most likely fail to load. Are you sure that with -r2 you are not actually using modesetting driver? :)
Are you using a hardened profile, by chance?
No, my current profile is [16] default/linux/amd64/17.0/desktop (stable) * My make.conf has LDFLAGS="${LDFLAGS} -Wl,--as-needed -Wl,-z,now -Wl,-z,relro" Which driver would be loaded as fallback and how to see that?
(In reply to Massimo Burcheri from comment #7) > Which driver would be loaded as fallback and how to see that? Please check the Xorg log.
I have similar problem. With ati-18.0.1-r2 my xorg failed with error message: '(EE) Failed to load /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers/radeon_drv.so: /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers/radeon_drv.so: undefined symbol: exaWaitSync'. exaWaitSync is provided by /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/libexa.so, so this error is probably result of changing lazy/now linking policy too...
