I am not sure Gentoo supports DKMS. Try x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers and it will tell you this:


    if use kernel_linux && kernel_is ge 4 19; then
        ewarn "Gentoo supports kernels which are supported by NVIDIA"
        ewarn "which are limited to the following kernels:"
        ewarn "<sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-4.19"
        ewarn "<sys-kernel/vanilla-sources-4.19"
Comment 2 aesycos 2018-12-23 23:47:50 UTC 
I'm using Gentoo sources 4.19 and then Nvidia driver does not compile and needs a patch to compile successfully. I'm confused on your response
Comment 3 Grant Edwards 2019-02-21 16:31:29 UTC 
I don't understand why this patch can't be included in the ebuild?
