Hi All -

Ever since I upgraded to 6.8 I have usually been getting a trace back report
for some bits related to Nouveau whenever the screensaver has been running
and I get back into the system.  Along the lines of:

:Pid: 31, comm: events/4 Tainted: G        W  -- ------------   
2.6.32-642.el6.x86_64 #1

PID 31 is:
root        31  0.9  0.0      0     0 ?        S    Jun03  12:44 [events/4]

It seems to be innocuous (everything seems to still work) but things that
seem to be innocuous have a habit of coming back and biting me.  Anyone else
experiencing this?  Anyone know how to fix it?  Both kernel and
xorg-x11-drv-nouveau are current as is the rest of the system.  Not finding
anything with Google.

Cheers,
Dave
