Hi,

First: the entire system is on ~amd64.

Today I changed my kernel source from gentoo-sources to vanilla-sources. Portage pulled in linux-2.6.25-rc8 which I then compiled and installed.

After that I tried to reemerge nvidia-drivers. It did not compile, but failed with the error

Code:

/src/nv/nv-vm.c:364: error: implicit declaration of function 'global_flush_tlb'

Is anyone using the ~nvidia-driver together with a 2.6.25-rc kernel?

Thanks. I followed the instructions and now I can compile nvidia-drivers. I hope this patch will find it's way into portage.
