The CONFIG_CHECK in the nvidia-drivers-415 ebuild requires CONFIG_I2C_NVIDIA_GPU not to be set. In my distribution I want to set this to M but then I cannot install the drivers package. I would vote for setting CONFIG_CHECK="!DEBUG_MUTEXES ~!I2C_NVIDIA_GPU ... Reproducible: Always Actual Results: Ebuild fails
Have you actually tested the combination?
No I haven't, but a kernel with module X built as externatl module should be the same as a kernel built without that module ...
P.S: but its compiling fine with CONFIG_I2C_NVIDIA_GPU=m
Hello As a circumvention for my distribution I am using now: sed -i /usr/src/linux/.config \ -e "s%^CONFIG_I2C_NVIDIA_GPU=m%# CONFIG_I2C_NVIDIA_GPU=m%" emerge x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers sed -i /usr/src/linux/.config \ -e "s%^# CONFIG_I2C_NVIDIA_GPU=m%CONFIG_I2C_NVIDIA_GPU=m%" Anyway changing this in the ebuild would be nicer :) Regards Helmut

Why does the ebuild complain about this at all? It is a needed driver for the USB-C port on Turing cards. The nvidia driver doesn't take care of this.
