Thank you, Ren=C3=A9,
After rebuilding xf86-video-ati , I changed the xorg.conf to use "Driver
ati".

I am using Radeon HD 6500D, indeed I did not know for sure what driver to
use.
After all, even using ati driver I am having trouble with SDL at -current
(r267702),
$ sdl-config --version
1.2.15

This is the error:
SDL_Init( SDL_INIT_VIDEO ) FAILED (No available video device)
SDL_Init( SDL_INIT_VIDEO ) FAILED (No available video device)

All SDL applications that I try give me the same error, but glxgears and
glxinfo works.

$ glxinfo  | grep -i opengl
OpenGL vendor string: X.Org
OpenGL renderer string: Gallium 0.4 on AMD SUMO
OpenGL version string: 2.1 Mesa 9.1.7
OpenGL shading language version string: 1.30


Thanks in advance for any help!
