Re: Tainted kernels

FYI if you get on oop and then another one, then kernel would show tainted by the initial oop. That makes it sometimes hard to report an issue.

In the oops reporter you can see capital letters flags about the taintedness of the kernel. There was some doc documented what each flag means.

Earlier, I'd asked about what was causing abrt to claim that my laptop's
kernel was tainted, even though I don't know of anything that would
cause this.  Somebody asked me to check a certain location in /proc,
which turned out not to exist on the laptop.  I'd like to check again,
and check it on my desktop as well because I know the desktop's kernel
is tainted by kmod-nvidia, and that would give me a good way to compare
a known-tainted kernel with my laptop's.  Alas, I've lost the email with
the pointer in it.  If anybody remembers what I'm supposed to check,
please let me know.  Thanx!
