The nvidia linux drivers have worked well for me... Is it a possibility for you?
I haven't used gentoo before.

Subject: [nflug] Xorg problem


Im currently running Gentoo on an Athlon 4600+ dual core with 4Gig
ram, nVidia 7600GS video card and USB keyboard and Trackman Wheel
trackball. I just emerged xorg-server 1.4.0.90-r3 and when I try to
startx I get an initialization screen with a pointer that fails to
move. Afterwards I crtl-alt-backspace it shows an error message as
follows:
