I do not know why your syslogd / klogd converts a TAB to "^I". But if it is a problem, I think, the correct fix would be something like - printk(KERN_INFO "DC390: clustering now enabled by default. If you get problems load\n" - "\twith \"disable_clustering=1\" and report to maintainers\n"); + printk(KERN_INFO "DC390: clustering now enabled by default. If you get problems load\n"); + printk(KERN_INFO " with \"disable_clustering=1\" and report to maintainers\n"); Or maybe just remove that printk altogether - it has been there for almost 2 years now, and I haven't heard a single complaint, but on the other hand, maybe you are the first, who at least loaded this driver since 2 years:-) Ok, taking into account that this driver is hardly used, I would keep this warning in case someone does get a problem.
