Ah, yes. Sorry that got overlooked. On it.
+ 21 May 2008; <chainsaw@gentoo.org> + +files/NVIDIA_kernel-71.86.04-2305230.diff, + nvidia-drivers-71.86.04.ebuild: + Add patch to allow building on 2.6.25 kernels; thanks to Andreas + <andreas.schuerch@nativenet.ch>. No revision bump, the module didnt build + for affected users. Closes bug #223047. This is in CVS now, please allow up to 2 hours for this to propagate before you run emerge --sync. Thank you for your contribution to Gentoo Linux :)
