Bug 513334 – sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-3.15.0-r1 - FB_CON_DECOR missing from genpatches

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Heiko Baums 2014-06-15 11:12:31 UTC]

The kernel module FB_CON_DECOR is missing in sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-3.15.0-r1.
Would be nice, if it would come back into the kernel.

Reproducible: Always

I don't have time to figure out why right now, but this did not apply against 3.15.1.

It's strange. It works for me with gentoo-sources-3.15.0-r1 (I use it as userpatch at /etc/portage/patches/gentoo-sources) and I've just also tried to apply it to vanilla-sources-3.15.1, and it has applied without any warnings.

I can confirm the patch working on Gentoo-Sources 3.15.1, applied by using the command "patch -p1 < ./fbcondecor-3.15.patch" inside "/usr/src/linux".

Queued up for next 3.15 release. Thanks for porting and for the testing.
