Description Drake Donahue 2015-09-20 23:55:42 UTC

https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/blob/master/x11-drivers/ati-drivers/files does not contain all needed patches.
https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/blob/master/x11-drivers/ati-drivers/ati-drivers-15.9.ebuild does not list all required epatches

https://github.com/fernando-rodriguez/portage-overlay/tree/master/x11-drivers/ati-drivers contains all required updates.

https://github.com/fernando-rodriguez/portage-overlay/tree/master/x11-drivers/ati-drivers has been installed in a local overlay. ati-drivers-15.9 was then emerged and tested against gentoo-sources-3.18.16, gentoo-sources-4.1.6, gentoo-sources-4.2.0-r1, git-sources-4.2-rc8, and git-sources-4.3-rc1. All emerges were successful and supported xfce4, glxinfo, glxgears, and usual desktop applications.
Recommend updating current, complete, and working x11-drivers/ati-drivers from Fernando Rodriguez's overlay.  

Reproducible: Always
