    What do you have in your VIDEO_CARDS variable in your portage settings?

    Edit: Also if you configured your own kernel make sure to look at the section above the one i linked if you have everything needed enabled in your kernel config.

    Edit2: About the ~amd64 keyword…gentoo packages come in two “branches”. The stable and the testing branch. Normally you install a package in the stable version. But if you want you can set the ~amd64 keyword for a package and you get the testing version ( https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/ACCEPT_KEYWORDS ). You can mix stable and testing package on your system as you like…but often testing packages will require other testing packages to be installed. For KDE for example plasma 6.8 is currently the testing version and 6.6.6 and 6.7.5 are the stable versions (you can pick which one you want).

    I really recommend you read the “Working with gentoo” and “Working with portage” section of the handbook…they explain most of this.
