Description Dave Jones 2011-07-01 00:15:16 UTC
abrt pops up if there's a kernel message about a firmware bug.
We can't do anything about this.

If the kernel_tainted field is 2048, don't file a bug.
Possibly pop up something telling the user to look for a BIOS update, but otherwise, just ignore it.

This is especially true for cases like bug 717212. There are a lot of machines with broken DMAR tables.
