Hi!

I'm currently trying to get hybrid graphics to work on my laptop. I have Intel HD 4000 graphics and a dedicated AMD HD7970M GPU
I've followed the Instructions from here: http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/Fglrx-hybrid-graphics
My kernel is compiled with
Code:
Device Drivers  --->
  Graphics support  --->
    <*> /dev/agpgart (AGP Support)
      <*> Intel 440LX/BX/GX, I8xx and E7x05 chipset support
    <*> Direct Rendering Manager (XFree86 4.1.0 and higher DRI support)  --->
      <*> Intel 8xx/9xx/G3x/G4x/HD Graphics
          [*] Enable modesetting on intel by default


I emerged ati-drivers-12.11_beta8

Didn't have to change the scripts in /usr/lib/fglrx

I then ran
Code:
/opt/bin/aticonfig --initial
/opt/bin/aticonfig --px-igpu


and rebooted my system

X server failed to start with:
Code:

Fatal server error:
[     5.726] Caught signal 11 (Segmentation fault). Server aborting


I tried
Code:
/opt/bin/aticonfig --px-dgpu
, but it just gave me the same error, except that now it said that the dedicated GPU was selected.

I tried compiling the intel driver as a module without any effect.
I also tried turning off kms, which gave me a black unresponsive screen after the X server tried to start
The same happens with the nomodeset kernel parameter in grub.
tried ati-drivers-12.11_beta11 from the x11 overlay but that too crashes the X server with the message above

I don't really know what I'm doing wrong :?

Fixed it by downgrading xf86-video-intel to version 2.20.2
