[PATCH v3 6/6] drm: Make the nomodeset message less sensational

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The message printed when nomodeset is present in the kernel command line
makes it look as if the parameter must never be used and it's a bad idea.

But there are valid reasons to use this parameter and the message should
not imply otherwise. Change the text to be more accurate and restrained.
