Created attachment 72865 [details]
File asked by the ebuild error to be attached

[Comment 2 John Rico 2005-11-14 07:46:11 UTC]

nano -w /usr/portage/x11-drivers/ati-drivers/ati-drivers-8.14.13-r3.ebuild

It's not that hard, just look for the following in the ebuild code and remove it:

{
if amd64
apply nonsensical 2.6.14 patch even though i haven't checked to see if i even
have 2.6.14
fi
}

then:

ebuild /usr/portage/x11-drivers/ati-drivers/ati-drivers-8.14.13-r3.ebuild digest
emerge ati-drivers

[Comment 3 George L. Emigh 2005-11-15 14:13:17 UTC]

for AMD64 with kernel 2.6.14+ ati-drivers-8.19.10.ebuild needs: 
 
  epatch "${FILESDIR}/fglrx-2.6.14-compat_ioctl.patch" 
 
added, otherwise the kernel module will not load and yell in dmesg about 
unknown symbol regester_ioctl32_conversion and unregester_ioctl32_conversion. 
 
I manually added it, tried it, it applied, and it works on 
ati-drivers-8.19.10.

I'm sorry for the problems, I can't test it myself and I'm overbusy currently.

Please sync and check if it is working as supposed for everybody. Reopen if isn't
