I'm not using those modules. Unless KMS actively breaks because those modules exist but aren't loaded, I don't see how framebuffer modules are the problem. > http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/xorg-config.xm I added VIDEO_CARDS and remerged xorg-server and xorg-drivers.

My only problem is that 1.9.2 doesn't set the right screen size. That probably does point to KMS in some manner, but a 1.8 upgrade guide doesn't deal with it. -- ... _._. ._ ._. . _._. ._. ___ .__ ._. . .__. ._ .. ._.
