johtib,

You have probably got a few things missing (well at least one) missing from your kernel. Likely the chip set driver. See the detail in this thread. https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=185050&highlight=

I've got the following chipsets, do I need something special for them (reported by wcpuid)?

Host Bridge: VIA Apollo KT133

South Bridge: VIA VT82C686B

johtib,

You should choose the VIA82CXXX chipset support, which is the last one in the list in the 2.6.6 kernel.
