[SOLVED] Nouveau "misaligned reg" & "unknown connector type" messages

This is what comes up during boot time, before the "INIT: version 2.88 booting" line and before all the stuff with "[DONE]" at the end:

[     3.667619] [drm] nouveau 0000:00:0d.0: ======= misaligned reg 0x0060081D ===
====
[     3.667624] [drm] nouveau 0000:00:0d.0: ======= misaligned reg 0x0060081D ===
====
[     4.061603] [drm] nouveau 0000:00:0d.0: unknown connector type: 0xff!!

System is up to date, video card is a Geforce 7025 (onboard) using a VGA cable. I tried googling and nothing useful came up. I should also mention that it happened since way before the "3.x.x" kernel naming change, maybe like a year ago or something like that... Arch boots fine, so I never did bother to ask. Should I be worried?

I have made a personal commitment not to reply in topics that start with a lowercase letter. Proper grammar and punctuation is a sign of respect, and if you do not show any, you will NOT receive any help (at least not from me).

Re: [SOLVED] Nouveau "misaligned reg" & "unknown connector type" messages

Yesterday while I was dicking around with framebuffer splash screens, I noticed that if I put "loglevel=3" as a kernel parameter these warnings stop showing up. The tty1 looks much, much cleaner now! I use the Syslinux bootloader so it was very easy to add it to the "APPEND" line because there's just one config file (same with GRUB Legacy, except it's the "kernel" line).

For GRUB 2... You have to edit /etc/default/grub:

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet loglevel=3"

And then re-generate the config file:

# grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg

PS: I also had to add vga=current to the "APPEND" line because it's a known Syslinux issue, even though both the Nouveau and KMS wiki suggest removing any vga= parameters. Oh, well... tongue
