I just installed Gentoo for the first time yesterday. When I tried to 'emerge linux-sources' during the installation, I got a description of a new kernel source organization implemented on Aprl 22. So, instead I did 'emerge gentoo-sources' and built a kernel from those sources.

However, if I try to 'emerge nvidia-kernel', it still wants to install the linux-sources ebuild which no longer exist. Is there a way to force emerge to ignore broken dependencies? Or is it better to just wait for a new nvidia-kernel ebuild?

Seems there are still some things that need to be updated for the new kernel source layout.

emerge --nodeps <nvidia_stuff>

The above will do the trick ^^

Nope....the patch is failing when I do that.

I'm at work, so I can't be sure, but I think it's failing when it trys to patch modversion.h since it doesn't exist. :(

You should file a bug report for this.
