The x11-drivers/ati-drivers-8.552-r2 fails to build the fglrx module. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. cd /usr/src/linux 2. make mrproper (be warned this deletes kernel .config and .oldconfig) 3. configure kernel 4. mkdir _altkernel 5. make O=_altkernel && make O=_altkernel modules_install 6. cp /usr/src/linux/_altkernel/$arch/boot/bzImage /boot/gentoo/. (replace $arch with your arch) 7. edit lilo or grub to use this kernel 8. restart using this kernel 9. export KBUILD_OUTPUT="/usr/linux/_altkern" 10. emerge =x11-drivers/ati-drivers-8.552-r2 Actual Results: /var/tmp/portage/x11-drivers/ati-drivers-8.552-r2/work/common/lib/modules/fglrx/build_mod/2.6.x/firegl_public.c:3207: warning: return makes pointer from integer without a cast /var/tmp/portage/x11-drivers/ati-drivers-8.552-r2/work/common/lib/modules/fglrx/build_mod/2.6.x/firegl_public.c:3208: warning: return makes pointer from integer without a cast /var/tmp/portage/x11-drivers/ati-drivers-8.552-r2/work/common/lib/modules/fglrx/build_mod/2.6.x/firegl_public.c:3210: warning: return makes pointer from integer without a cast make[3]: *** [/var/tmp/portage/x11-drivers/ati-drivers-8.552-r2/work/common/lib/modules/fglrx/build_mod/2.6.x/firegl_public.o] Error 1 make[2]: *** [_module_/var/tmp/portage/x11-drivers/ati-drivers-8.552-r2/work/common/lib/modules/fglrx/build_mod/2.6.x] Error 2 make[1]: *** [sub-make] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.29-gentoo-r5' make: *** [kmod_build] Error 2 * * ERROR: x11-drivers/ati-drivers-8.552-r2 failed. * Call stack: * ebuild.sh, line 49: Called src_compile * environment, line 3332: Called linux-mod_src_compile * environment, line 2527: Called die * The specific snippet of code: * eval "emake HOSTCC=\"$(tc-getBUILD_CC)\" CROSS_COMPILE=${CHOST}- LDFLAGS=\"$(get_abi_LDFLAGS)\" ${BUILD_FIXES} ${BUILD_PARAMS} ${BUILD_TARGETS} " || die "Unable to emake HOSTCC="$(tc-getBUILD_CC)" CROSS_COMPILE=${CHOST}- LDFLAGS="$(get_abi_LDFLAGS)" ${BUILD_FIXES} ${BUILD_PARAMS} ${BUILD_TARGETS}";

I copied my current kernels config into /usr/src/linux, enabled deprecated symbols in the kernel hacks section, rebuilt the kernel and reloaded. The same error persists. So this didn't have anything to do with KBUILD_OUTPUT and using an alternate dir for my compiled kernels. I tried a few others and they all had the same error x11-drivers/ati-drivers-8.471.3 x11-drivers/ati-drivers-8.552-r2 x11-drivers/ati-drivers-8.552-r3 x11-drivers/ati-drivers-8.573-r1 (doesnt work on 2.6.29 kernels) also is it strange to anyone else that CROSS_COMPILE is missing the tail end "gcc" and LDFALGS isn't set even though it is in the emerge --info LDFLAGS="-Wl,-O1" * Unable to emake HOSTCC=i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc CROSS_COMPILE=i686-pc-linux-gnu- LDFLAGS= GCC_VER_MAJ=4 KVER=2.6.29-gentoo-r5 KDIR=/usr/src/linux kmod_build
Please could you provide the complete build.log file from the failed build.
FYI Joel: CROSS_COMPILE normally looks like that, it is a prefix used to generate program names other than just gcc, e.g. i686-pc-linux-gnu-ld
I have the same problem, so maybe I can help (I've decided not to start another bug, as the only difference is that I'am using x86_64 [on Core2 Duo]).

I had problems with my kernel, had to activate PCI_LEGACY for pci_find_slot() and EXPORT_SYMBOLS, but everything is normal right now, except for these errors. Maybe the sourcecode was compiled and tested against an old gcc version? Maybe 3.X?
Created attachment 198195 [details] build.log
The structure fields which are missing here were removed from the task_struct structure during kernel 2.6.29 development. The package must be run with kernel 2.6.28 or earlier. Here is the update which broke ati-drivers: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.29.y.git;a=commitdiff;h=b6dff3ec5e116e3af6f537d4caedcad6b9e5082a
