http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1168776 Bug ID: 1168776 Summary: Message spam about framebuffer compression in system log Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Tumbleweed Version: Current Hardware: x86-64 OS: Other Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Kernel Assignee: kernel-maintainers@forge.provo.novell.com Reporter: Stromeko@NexGo.DE QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- This update produces reams of these messages on my system: Apr 05 09:17:36 Gertrud kernel: [drm] Reducing the compressed framebuffer size. This may lead to less power savings than a non-reduced-size. Try to increase stolen memory size if available in BIOS. There is no BIOS setting I could change on my Dell T20 unfortunaltely. I have already tried to set the kernel parameter i915.enable_fbc=0 (and a parameter file in /etc/modprobe.d with the same settings), which does result in a tainted kernel (so the setting should be active), but these messages still continue at a high rate and the frambuffer compression seems to be enabled anyway. The 5.5.* kernels do not have this problem, this message never occurs there. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
