[gentoo-user] ati-drivers: no kernel found?

[Arnau Bria]

Hi,

I'm trying to install ati drivers, but I fins and error:

But I have my kernel, conf and MAkefile in /usr/src/linux:


lx-arnau linux # uname -r
2.6.31-gentoo-r6
lx-arnau linux # ls -lsad /usr/src/linux
0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 22 2009-11-27 16:20 /usr/src/linux -> linux-2.6.31-gentoo-r6

lx-arnau linux # ls /usr/src/linux
arch   crypto   firmware  include  ipc     lib  Module.markers  Module.symvers  scripts   sound       usr   vmlinux
block  drivers  fs        init     kernel  mm   modules.order   net             security  System.map  virt  vmlinux.o

lx-arnau linux # ls -lsa /usr/src/linux/.config
92 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 87932 2010-03-11 11:16 /usr/src/linux/.config

so, why is ati complaining aboput my kerel conf?

TIA,

This listing is not a complete kernel set. Did you do a emerge 
--depclean lately?
Reemerge you kernel ebuild and do a make oldconfig to be sure.

Then try it again.

It looks like /usr/src/linux points to newly installed kernel sources on
which you have not run make *config yet.

Never argue with an idiot. First, they bring you down to their level.
Then they beat you with experience.

For curiosity, what is missing? make oldconfing?¿

yep.

I'm with r6 and gentoo-sources is at r10, is it important? do Ihave to
remerge r6 too?

A complete listing looks like this:
bragi linux # ls
arch           drivers   Kbuild       modules.builtin  samples     usr
block          firmware  kernel       modules.order    scripts     virt
COPYING        fs        lib          Module.symvers   security    vmlinux
CREDITS        include   MAINTAINERS  net              sound       vmlinux.o
crypto         init      Makefile     README           System.map
Documentation  ipc       mm           REPORTING-BUGS   tools
bragi linux #

Depclean seems to delete some parts of the kernel directory if you have 
a newer kernel ebuild available. Had that too, once.
Which release you use r6 or r10 is your choise. r10 is newer with more 
security patches and such, so i would say you should use that one.
Do you know how to deal with a kernel update?

nop, that's not the case:

# uname -r

#ls -lsa

yes, yes, but I wanted to test ati drivers compilation before
recompiling the kernel and rebooting...

anyway, as I have to open my computer for changing video-card, going to
build new kernel an then, ati-drivers.
