New ati-drivers are out. ati-drivers-extra-8.20.8 also needs to be added. Patches will follow in some minutes
Created attachment 74338 [details] ati-drivers-extra-8.20.8-improvements.patch.bz2 Nothing really changed in fglrx_panel_sources, so you can use ati-drivers-extra-8.19.10-improvements.patch.bz2 or this one
thank you as usual, I hope to have it in portage tomorrow, btw, why not push upstream your enhancements?
I tried it with no reactions
Mattew would be a problem include the attached changes to the next release? I'm not sure if is a temporary issue but I cannot get on the drivers page (somewhere the connection times out)
for tracking purpose only as I am working on bump with lu_zero
On plain x86 it is building as expected. Jory there are any issues on amd64? (I cannot test myself today nor tomorrow)
Issue I have right now belongs to modular X conversion. If on modular X virtual/x11 is no longer used, this breaks build as it does not determine what we are using for xorg or xfree86 :/ Lu_zero is awae of it we have spoken and are working on the problem. Soon as this is complete I believe it will be ready to add to the tree. Sorry for the delay.

if you are using modular X you should add a virtual/x11 somewhere I'm about to fix the issue now (adding the right deps and checking)

For Comment #11, I don't believe I had to do that for 8.19.10
the 19.10 has the needed file... I fixed somewhat the 20.8 anyway.
(In reply to comment #13) > the 19.10 has the needed file... > > I fixed somewhat the 20.8 anyway. Great news, can you attach it for testing? I dont see it in portage yet. Thanks, Paul
esync and emerge if the header is present in the files dir I didn't revbump just for that
after emerge --sync, emerging ati-drivers fails all the same, X11 version is not detected at all. Did I miss something what I have to do? (I have 7.0_rc3 installed)
Oh, now I see that you have improved ati-drivers-extra... okay. Sok 8.20.8 still does not have a working ebuild for modular xorg... make[1]: *** No rule to make target `/var/tmp/portage/ati-drivers-8.20.8/work/co mmon/lib/modules/fglrx/build_mod/libfglrx_ip.a.GCC3', needed by `/var/tmp/portag e/ati-drivers-8.20.8/work/common/lib/modules/fglrx/build_mod/fglrx.o'.

for modular X there is an fix for the ebuild posted in the forums: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-2954372.html#2954372 I found by changing the ebuild for ati-driver from Code: "$(get_version_component_range 1 ${X11_IMPLEM_V})" = 7 ] \ || [ "$(get_version_component_range 1 ${X11_IMPLEM_V})" = 0 ] to Code: "$(get_version_component_range 1 ${X11_IMPLEM_V})" = 8 ] \ || [ "$(get_version_component_range 1 ${X11_IMPLEM_V})" = 0 ] solved the problem
Yes, it solved my build too, thanks a great lot!! Would be absolutely great if it would be incorporated in portage somehow.
