Description arch harris 2011-06-28 21:31:14 UTC
Description of problem:

Log spam --
[drm] nouveau 0000:04:00.0: unplugged DVI-I-1
[drm] nouveau 0000:04:00.0: plugged DVI-I-1
...
 
This is the same bug as reported in 616974.  However, that bug was seemingly dismissed because "Fedora 13 is nearing its end of life".  But the bug still exists, currently in Enterpise 6.1, which is at the beginning of its life.  Assuming a fix is as easy at it would seem to be, the fact this has not been corrected, even for a low priority item, is inexcusable.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
This was reported a year ago so it probably applies to a number of versions.  My current version is xorg-x11-drv-nouveau-0.0.16-9.20110107gitb795ca6.el6.i686.


How reproducible:
Use a monitor that goes into screensaver mode.


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Do nothing
2.
3.
  
Actual results:
[drm] nouveau 0000:04:00.0: unplugged DVI-I-1
[drm] nouveau 0000:04:00.0: plugged DVI-I-1
...


Expected results:
Nothing

Comment 2 RHEL Program Management 2011-10-07 16:17:26 UTC
Since RHEL 6.2 External Beta has begun, and this bug remains
unresolved, it has been rejected as it is not proposed as
exception or blocker.

Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to
propose this request, if appropriate and relevant, in the
next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Comment 3 Ben Skeggs 2012-07-11 07:37:01 UTC
The nouveau kernel module in 6.3 no longer reports these messages at its default loglevel.
