Ebuild fails the message cut&pasted in "actual results" I have two similar dual Opteron machines under GEntoo at the moment and this ebuild fails on one of them. Both have newest profile gcc-3.4.x, I'm using gcc 3.4.3 on both machines at the moment and both have vanilla kernel (working machine has latest 2.6.10rc1 and non-working machine has 2.6.8.1) Linux softlink in /usr/src points to correct kernel version, so I don't think this is the problem. I have nvidia-kernel,nvidia-glx and nvidia-settings in /etc/portage/package.keywords marked as unbstable (~amd64) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge nvidia-kernel 2. 3.

Same result here with a 2.6.9 vanilla
Edit the ebuild and comment out this patch, then emerge again (thank to lv in IRC) :)
This should already be fixed in latest version of this ebuild.
