Looks like they have cleaned the source? I dont have any warning when compiling... does this drivers support kernel 2.6.16 or still we need to patch them? * Building the DRM module... make: se ingresa al directorio `/usr/src/linux-2.6.15-gentoo-r7' CC [M] /var/tmp/portage/ati-drivers-8.25.18/work/common/lib/modules/fglrx/build_mod/firegl_public.o LD [M] /var/tmp/portage/ati-drivers-8.25.18/work/common/lib/modules/fglrx/build_mod/fglrx.o Building modules, stage 2.

I am bumping ati-drivers as I type, all patches are commented out as they are no longer needed. This will be the release for 2.6.16 and 2.6.17.
This release is working pretty well, the anoying kernel panic when stoping gdm has finally gone for me, the only problem i have found is that i can`t disable fsaa, but this is a minor problem, i suposse, im reporting it to ati.
I get this error when trying to update: >>> Emerging (1 of 1) x11-drivers/ati-drivers-8.25.18 to / >>> checking ebuild checksums ;-) >>> checking auxfile checksums !!!

Got the same issue here but emerge --sync fixed it
I think that i souldn't be able to install xorg-server-1.1.0 if I'm using this driver because this version isn't binary compatible with xorg-server-1.1.0 (xorg-7.1) but i'm on ~x86 and i'm able to do it after emerge --sync. This is a bug? : $ emerge -vp xorg-server emerge -vp xorg-server These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done!
