[Bug 248670] New: I don't want to run a tainted kernel :-)

Or is it something we actually may want to disable from loading by default? (The fact that dmesg/syslog don't show which module is actually causing the taint is not particularly helpful. :-( ) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

dmesg _should_ show which module caused the kernel to be tainted. Can you please attach it?
Done, but egrep -i 'taint|support' does not reveal anything I'm afraid.
However, 10.3 is unsupported anyway, so the supported by Novell or not flag doesn't really matter all that much.
Well, I figured the kernel teams will be more happy/willing to look into bug reports if my kernel is not tainted. I do see oopses with the current 10.3 kernel, and if you are willing to look into those any way, this is indeed less of an issue. ;-) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

Sorry, should have spotted that earlier. G/U flags are thus not a problem. Your unsupported system will still be supported ;-) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
