Fix Kernel 2.6.36 build with Intel PSB GMA 500 (psb-kmod)

Linux kernel 2.6.36 changed  the ioctl structure.  I have attached a new patch and e-build which should fix the issue to the following ticket: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=344889

  1. Hi. Great work. I'm running things (kind of) ok in .36. I should point out that in xorg.conf I need: Optioon "AccelMethod" "EXA" or it get a segfault when it tries to load up a website. (http://pastebin.com/9yhGYU3A)

    I also get a black screen when I launch mplayer (even with AccelMethod EXA). I'd love to know if you get these problems too!

  2. Oops. I meant to report also that xrandr -o right gives me a black screen as well.
