I made sure, that I am booted 2.6.5, removed /usr/src/linux-2.6.5, and /lib/modules/2.6.5, unpacked the tarball by hand, in case the ebuild did some patching, made a symlink with ln -s linux-2.6.5 linux and cd'ed into linux. There I copied agpgart-2004-04-06.diff into /usr/src/linux and applied it with patch -p1 < agpgart-2004-04-06.diff
It said, that it was applied against sis, intel, efficion and via (not this order..) and I found no *.rej files, while the supposed to be patched files had an actual timestamp.
After that I copied over my .config from 2.6.5-rc3, made make oldconfig, without any problems, and make all modules_install install after that. Grub points to vmlinuz, so everything fine there.
I rebooted. Same error, uname -r: Linux energy.heim10.tu-clausthal.de 2.6.5 #1 Tue Apr 6 20:26:45 CEST 2004 i686 AMD Athlon(tm) XP 2000+ AuthenticAMD GNU/Linux
So yes, I am pretty sure, that I am innocent ;o)
Glück Auf Volker
