Description

I forgot to write explicitly that I have built the kernel before trying to reinstall x11-drm, sorry. same problem on ~x86 This commit http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.25.y.git;a=commit;h=3c18ddd160d1fcd46d1131d9ad6c594dd8e9af99 states that the whole 'nopage' thing has been removed from the kernel. Before the commit, "include/linux/mm.h" contained both the "NOPAGE_SIGBUS" macro and the "nopage" function pointer (as a field inside the "struct vm_operations_struct"). Lastly, a note in "Documentation/feature-removal-schedule.txt" states that "This interface [vm_ops.nopage] is replaced by vm_ops.fault, but it has been around forever, is used by a lot of drivers, and doesn't cost much to maintain." It seems that the package authors closed the issue with commit http://gitweb.freedesktop.org/?p=mesa/drm.git;a=commit;h=b44f2da380e78769b58c751e81f376f0fa1f48aa which dates back to 7 May 2008. The tree is way too different from the state it was in the 20071019 snapshot, so I suppose that a backport of the fixes is impossible. So, I tried the 20080710 snapshot that is in Portage and it compiles cleanly with gentoo-sources-2.6.26 (I've not installed the package, though, given the warnings in package.mask about modprobe.d). And sorry for the comment spam I can confirm on ~x86 that the 20080710 snapshot in Portage compiles cleanly with gentoo-sources-2.6.26. It's installed on my machine and it works just fine. Please consider unmasking it and putting it into ~x86 at least. (In reply to comment #5) Seconded. x11-drm-20080710 works perfectly on x86 (PentiumII) with gentoo-sources-2.6.26-r1. Please, unmask this package. In response to the comments about 20080710, it has been unmasked. To avoid derailing this bug, please post any issues or feedback regarding that version in a new bug or to me personally via email or IRC. Thanks. x11-drm 20070314 and 20071019 have new patchballs allowing them to build with 2.6.26 (and 2.6.27 for 20070314).

Bug #232070 is finished. Current stable x11-drm now builds with 2.6.26. |
