Hi,
I currently experience that my kernel, which boots without taints (= taint value 0), gets a taint value of 512 (kernel warning) at the very moment I log in from sddm into kde. The bug BZ#2327861 is reproducible always on my system (BZ#2318421 is likely the same bug/issue).
I would like to verify if this issue occurs only on my system (limiting it to my very hardware or any configuration/package) and of those of the other bug report, or if a wider audience is affected by that.
Every user who has a Fedora 41 KDE Spin can help me to identify this. No higher expertise is needed.
If you have a F41 KDE Spin, you can just log into your KDE as usual (if you have not already done so), and within your KDE, open a terminal (e.g., Konsole
), and then input the following command: cat /proc/sys/kernel/tainted
If the output of that is 512
, then please let me know here, reboot your machine, log again in KDE, and then do at first open a terminal again (e.g., Konsole
) and then provide the following information within a code box or with an external link (whatever you prefer):
sudo journalctl --no-hostname -k --boot=0
cat /proc/sys/kernel/tainted
uname -r
The first provides me with the journal messages of the kernel without mentioning your hostname (feel free to check the output if it is ok for you, but it does not contain data that users usually consider private), the second only provides the tainted value of the kernel, the third only the very kernel you are running.
It would be also helpful if you let me know if you have any third party repos enabled.
That would be very helpful
Thanks!
