| I have seen other posts with similar problems, but I am using linux-2.6.22-gentoo-r8 which I have been using for some time now. I have a .config file, I don't have anything referencing KBUILD_OUTPUT (don't even know what it is) . So far, none of the posts I have seen tell how to fix this when everything is configured correctly. Any ideas? Just tell me what info I need to post and I will. Right now, my system is pretty much messed up. Thanks. |

| Oh - lm_sensors is doing the same thing. I think something may be broken, but I don't know what. |

How about posting the actual error message? 
Include your "emerge --info" output as well as the exact commands you ran when you received the error(s). |

Ok - the error message is:

Thanks!!!
I have looked and seen similar problems, but they all used xen drivers or didn't configure the kernel. I have both right I think. |

| The file it is looking for is /usr/src/linux/Makefile If you did an emerge --depclean it would have deleted the file. |

The Makefile is there - I tried a make menuconfig and it returned the following:
| Code: |
Krypton linux # make menuconfig
make -C /usr/src/linux-2.6.23-gentoo-r6 O=/usr/src/linux-2.6.22-gentoo-r8 menuconfig
GEN /usr/src/linux-2.6.22-gentoo-r8/Makefile

Now I am really perplexed - I think I may just have to compile a new kernel and try again... |

I'm perplexed about why the makefile is using the directory /usr/src/linux-2.6.23-gentoo-r6 to build linux-2.6.22-gentoo-r8. |

That is a good one... maybe it is because he is running the older kernel, but his /usr/src/linux symlink is pointing to the newer one? It shouldn't mess up like that though. I'm sure that I did the exact same thing when I upgraded from *-r6 to *-r8. Weird.
Edit: or maybe I built the new kernel before I updated the symlink? I'm not sure now. |

I did not see that. I tried using eselect to point to linux-2.6.22-gentoo-r9 and linux-2.6.23-gentoo-r6. Ran make menuconfig in both directories, worked fine there. Unfortunatley, I am going out of town, so I am just going to shut my computer down at home (currently logging in over ssh from my laptop at GF's house) and I will try to upgrade my kernel and the whole nine yards when I get back. I'll post my results and see if that overcomes my initial problem of not being able to emerge nvidia-drivers or lm_sensors. Thanks for all the input so far! Otherwise, I'll keep trying to find a solution working with people here.
THANKS AGAIN!!  |
