Comment 1 Jakub Filak 2013-08-16 07:01:27 UTC
Thank you for taking the time to file this report.

Automatic Bug Reporting Tool reads the taint flags from kerneloops data and the data are stored along with other bug related files in problem directory. So you can verify that the taint flags were recognized correctly by reading that data.

G - only GPL modules were loaded, everything is OKay
W - tainted on waring, that's the problem, kernel data structures may be corrupted because kernel already warned you about some problem. If you don't see any warning, check dmesg output and /var/log/messages.

You can find more about tainted kernel here:
