Okay, I have fglrx as the driver in the xorg.conf file. And, at 24 bit resolution, xdm starts X. Bliss!
Then I realized that nothing was completing if it created an xterm of output or so. Drat! OS is Gentoo 2.6.15-gentoo-r1. Xorg is 6.8.2. Machine is a HP ZD8000 with an ATI X600 Mobile Radeon. Any ideas what is going on? Clearly it is related to X and fglrx, as the xorg.conf "ATI" driver doesn't do this.
