Gentoo compiled the ati drivers on my laptop just fine. I'm using 2.6.11.4. What exactly is your question.

Can you post patches from gentoo ebuilds?

If there was a patch applied, emerge would have taken care of it. All I did was "emerge ati-drivers". They compiled correctly and I have opengl and 3d acceleration. I guess you could search the mirror to see if there was a patch.

If you want to check gentoo's tree for patches, search google for intitle:index.of "gentoo/portage" ati

patches are in /files

Also, the linux forum at rage3d.com usually have an active thread about current drivers, patches are usually found there.
