Hi meconiotronic,
I believe you're already beginning to miss your GeForce...
I do not know much about ATI, but
i believe your ATI card is a AGP?
Which Drivers did you installed?
Maybe your AGP card is not supported by the ATI drivers you've installed.
can you show the output of
Code: Select all
cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | egrep 'Driver|BoardName|VendorName'

Also, can you verify that there is a match between the output of the following three commands:
Code: Select all
uname -r
eselect kernel show
find /lib/modules -name fglrx.ko
