Hi all, As fglrx ati driver does not work with >gentoo-sources-2.6.29-r5 kernel and my ati radeon 9600 (RV350) graphic card, i try to use the free radeon driver (x11-drivers/xf86-video-ati-6.12.4) I compiled the gentoo-sources-2.6.31 with AGP, DRI, VIA chipset support and ATI radeon as modules. X starts and works, but then randomly freezes.
In Xorg.0.log i get : mi] EQ overflowing. The server is probably stuck in an infinite loop. Backtrace: 0: /usr/bin/X(xorg_backtrace+0x37) [0x81334b7] [mi] mieqEnequeue: out-of-order valuator event; dropping. [mi] EQ overflowing. The server is probably stuck in an infinite loop.
