Hi All –

Ever since I upgraded to 6.8 I have usually been getting a trace back report for some bits related to Nouveau whenever the screensaver has been running and I get back into the system. Along the lines of:

:Pid: 31, comm: events/4 Tainted: G W — ————
2.6.32-642.el6.x86_64 #1
:Call Trace:

PID 31 is:
root 31 0.9 0.0 0 0 ? S Jun03 12:44 [events/4]

It seems to be innocuous (everything seems to still work) but things that seem to be innocuous have a habit of coming back and biting me. Anyone else experiencing this? Anyone know how to fix it? Both kernel and xorg-x11-drv-nouveau are current as is the rest of the system. Not finding anything with Google.

Cheers, Dave
