Hi, This is not a list for reporting bugs, rather then posting here if you create a bug on bugzilla.opensuse.org the right people will see the request and will be able to help you On 4/5/20 5:40 PM, Achim Gratz wrote:

kernel-source (5.5.13 -> 5.6.0)
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.
Regards, Achim.
