patches only work on the stuff they were build against it, afaik
and why are patches are simple?
just do not use unsupported kernels with binary drivers. OR !! edit the kernel accordingly as you can see on the patches where they need to be edited.
But do not expect that a patch will apply when you a different version which it was not build against it.

write an ebuild and apply the patches by hand, than run a diff on those, and name them accordingly for the ebuild. |

| Or you can report a bug at https://bugs.gentoo.org/ and let the maintainer figure it out (if he is willing). |

Patches are short and works in Arch Manjaro, but do not work in Gentoo under the same kernel. I think this bug report is a good idea.

This works for me (with local overlay PORTDIR_OVERLAY=/usr/local/portage in /etc/portage/make.conf)
copy | Code: | | manjaro_fglrx_319.patch |
into | Code: | | /etc/portage/patches/x11-drivers/ati-drivers |
copy the whole directory | Code: | | /usr/portage/x11-drivers/ati-drivers |
in | Code: | | /usr/local/portage/x11-drivers/ati-drivers |
delete all the ebuilds except ati-drivers-14.12-r3.ebuild from the local directory
edit the ebuild and add epatch_user at the end of the src_prepare() {} section
| Code: |
src_prepare() {
.
.
.
epatch_user
}
|
| Code: | | # ebuild ati-drivers-14.12-r3.ebuild digest |
| Code: | | # emerge ati-drivers |
