I just emerged -uD world, build a new kernel, rebooted and now I can't start X with the fglrx driver. Yes I remerged ati-drivers after building the new kernel and the module loads without any errormsgs.

When I want to start X I get:
Code:
X Window System Version 7.0.0
Release Date: 21 December 2005
X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0, Release 7.0
Build Operating System: Linux 2.6.16-gentoo-r1 x86_64
Current Operating System: Linux navi 2.6.16-gentoo-r2 #1 Wed Apr 19 15:46:56 Local time zone must be set--see zic manu x86_64
Build Date: 19 April 2006
        Before reporting problems, check http://wiki.x.org

Downgrade to xorg-server-1.0.2-r3, and everything should work fine!
If you have all the Xorg 7.0 packages in package.unmask, remove them, because it isn't hardmasked anymore.
