Description Dave Jones 2011-10-06 22:53:07 UTC

I'm not sure if the code in git is still reporting any of the tainted flags,
but if the TAINTED_CRAP flag is set, please don't file a kernel bug.

The reason for this, is that the virtualbox modules are known to cause us all sorts of problems we can't diagnose. Even though the code is GPL, we don't have the resources to fix bugs in out of tree modules.  Because it's GPL, it doesn't taint, so we've just added a kernel patch to taint it as if it was a staging driver.

If you could backport this change to f14 & f15 too, that would be much appreciated, as we're getting inundated with these bugs.

Comment 1 Nikola Pajkovsky 2011-10-07 09:09:06 UTC

We haven't built a new version abrt/libreport. I'm going to port patches from git  for f14 till rawhide.

Could you look at the bug #728194? In attached dmesg there are few traces where are missing ------------[ cut here ]------------ at the beginning of the trace.
