NVIDIA and Gentoo, both do not support release candidate kernels.

Comment 4 Brian Tarricone 2009-07-14 02:07:23 UTC

Well, presumably this incompatibility will remain in 2.6.31-final, and I'm sure nvidia won't have a new release ready, so you could at least leave it open till then...

(At least the i2c change will certainly be in 2.6.31, as the struct members removed have been on the kernel feature removal list for a while.)

Why is it "RESOLVED WONTFIX" ??
