 |

Here is emerge --info '=x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-390.87::gentoo'.
Here is the complete build log.
| Code: | emerge -pqv '=x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-390.87'
[ebuild R ] x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-390.87 USE="X acpi driver kms multilib tools uvm -compat -gtk3 -pax_kernel -static-libs -wayland" ABI_X86="32 (64) (-x32)"
|
Any debugging hints will be gratefully received.
[SOLVED] Many, many thanks go to fedeliallalinea, below, who not only found a Debian patch but also ported it to Gentoo. It works! [/SOLVED]

I put the patch into /etc/portage/patches/x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-390.87 but get this error in the emerge:
| Code: | * Applying debian_module_debian_patches_drm-mode.patch ...
The text leading up to this was:
--------------------------
|--- a/nvidia-drm/nvidia-drm-connector.c
|+++ b/nvidia-drm/nvidia-drm-connector.c
--------------------------
No file to patch. Skipping patch.

Perhaps I'm not applying the patch correctly.
Is this likely to be fixed with a new ebuild in portage? If so, I'll continue to use an older kernel and wait for the portage fix. |

| +1, once again the gentoo community already has a patch up fixing my issue by the time I search for it. Cheers. |

Yes! Many thanks fedeliallalinea. I just saw that the 4.19 kernel went stable in the update I'm about to do, and suspected it would probably be an issue for the 32 bit nvidia-drivers-390.87, and a Google search immediately found this!
Thanks!

Ahhh...correction to this: I just noticed that there's now a x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-390.116 in portage as well. I'd imagine that may already address this(?).
EDIT: From what I'm reading it appears that 390.116 actually supports kernel 5.x.
