hey,
i just recently migrated to gentoo linux, so maybe my question sounds a bit noobish but,...
well here's the problem:
i have a samsung q35 notebook with a mobile intel 945 graphics chip. on my old suse instalation i was using the i810 driver. i emerged the version 1.7.2-r1. (mesa is 6.5.1). kernel is a gentoo-source 2.18. the strange thing is, that theres is no kernel module after compiling the driver which i could load with modprobe. far more strange i just gave it a try and put "i810" as display driver into my xorg conf. and my x server works on it, but theres no 3d support. this is what glinfo says:
Code:

name of display: :0.0
Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual

 id dep cl sp sz l  ci b ro  r  g  b  a bf th cl  r  g  b  a ns b eat
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".

0x22 24 dc  1  0  0 c  .  .  0  0  0  0  0  0  0  0  0  0  0  0 0 None

second problem is that i use a external monitor, (my laptop screen supports reolutions up to 1280x800), and want to have a resolution of 1280x1024. i put that mode into my xorg conf, but it doesnt show up in my change-resolution dialogue (i use xfce4)

ill post my xorg.conf here too:
