[drm:i915_gem_init_stolen [i915]] *ERROR* conflict detected with stolen region: [0xc6000000 - 0xc8000000]

I've googled but can't find anything on the topic. i915 is the Skylake onboard graphics, which works.

any ideas?

More info please:

1) When did this error occur?
2) What kind of machine (specs, etc.)?
3) Are you booting into a TTY or a DE/WM?

1. Have always been a problem since install. When I check the system for high priority errors, this is the only one I get.
2. ASUS z170 m plus motherboard, i7 6700, arch install on a nvme drive, built-in graphics.
3. I'm not exactly sure what that means, but I have installed a GUI with X.

Thanks for your help!

So is anything broken? Are you just seeing the message in the log and wondering about it?

Unfortunately, I don't know an answer off the top of my head. But if everything on your machine is working, then I'd just ignore it for the time being.

Exactly, i've not experienced any problems. I'm simply trying to follow the recommendations to troubleshoot the errors thats severe.

I'll just ignore it then, for now.
