I am a noobie and have been trying to get system up for a while by looking at responses on forums and bugzilla. Each time I try, I can't seem to get by installation of ati-drivers. Currently, I have sucessfully emerged system and compiled my kernel (2.6.8-r3). Every time I try to emerge ati-drivers I get the following error: /usr/include/bits/local_lim.h:36:26: linux/limits.h: No such file or directory make[2]: *** [imake.o] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory '/var/tmp/portage/xorg-x11-6.7.0-r2/work/xc/config/imake' make[1]: *** [imake.proto] Error 2 make[1}: Leaving directory '/var/tmp/portage/xorg-x11-6.7.0-r2/work/xc' make: *** [World] Error 2 !!! ERROR: x11-base/xorg-x11-6.7.0-r2 failed. !!! Function src_compile, Line 584, Exitcode 2 !!! (no error message) I have updated linux-headers to linux26-headers according to this bug. (66223) I am not sure what to do or how to approach this problem. Perhaps I am a bit over my head, but I want to become proficient at figuring things out. I am not sure how to copy and send my computer output or send my basic setup using command line so I have had to type this info in. Not sure how to find out what version of gcc I am using or how to find that out. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge ati-drivers 2. 3. Actual Results: I got the error message Expected Results: finished installing the ati-drivers
Try remerging your headers please, linux/limits.h should be installed by them...
Please see comment #1.
