**This is what my laptop's screen with a newly installed Gentoo system running twm to test X looks like (attached image). It's distorted with overlapping and mirrored image. I have a Dell Latitude C800 with the video card.

Various people around the internet had posted xorg.conf that was supposed "ati" as the driver. I do not have that driver. I substituted in the same xorg.conf with r128, and I still had the same issue. I tried with no xorg.conf (the default), and I couldn't startx, errored and crashed. I had also tried X -configure and had the same distorted screen. I know it is possible to get this working just fine. I had it working just fine in Arch Linux with r128. I really don't want to go back to using Arch. I already used fdisk on it to install this new Gentoo system.
