Question Gentoo, Xorg, fglrx not working as intended


Ugh.. I am such a Gentoo crackboi...

Trying to get fglrx working w/Xorg on Gentoo, and I get some really funky nonsense:

Code:
blackbox ~ # X -configure

Check your xorg.conf -- comment out the BusID line if possible. I really don't think that "@" should be in there.
