Hello everyone, new gentoo user here.
I installed fglrx15.7, but after the installation, when writing glxinfo in the terminal I get this error:
Code:
name of display: :0
X Error of failed request:  BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation)
  Major opcode of failed request:  156 (ATIFGLEXTENSION)
  Minor opcode of failed request:  66 ()
  Serial number of failed request:  13
  Current serial number in output stream:  13

also when starting compton I get this error
Code:

[     0.00 ] error 1 (BadRequest) request 156 minor 66 serial 31 ("BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation)")
[     0.00 ] error 1 (BadRequest) request 155 minor 19 serial 33 ("BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation)")
[     0.00 ] error 1 (BadRequest) request 155 minor 19 serial 34 ("BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation)")
[     0.00 ] error 1 (BadRequest) request 155 minor 14 serial 35 ("BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation)")
glx_init(): Failed to get GLX context.

I think it might be related.

another problem is with steam. I installed steam through the steam-overlay overlay, and when launching steam I get an error: glXChooseVisual Failed.

Please help me.
Thanks in advance :)

What OpenGL implementation are you using? (probably ok, but just to be sure it's using ati's)

# eselect opengl list

Did the fglrx module get insmodded when X was started?

$ lsmod|grep fglrx

nvm I fixed it.
followed the steps in this thread: https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-7787460.html?sid=917cd1ad7162f619553838b80df83009 and upgraded my kernel to 4.1.3.
thanks anyway :D[/post]
