[Nouveau] Nouveau errors in /var/log/messages - what are they and what do they mean?
What does all these errors that the X11 Nouveau driver spews out in my /var/log/message mean? They don't seem to do any harm but I was wondering whether it might be having an impact on the driver's performance? Nvidia chipset used: NV34M (GeForce Fx Go5200 w/ 64MB RAM) xf86-video-nouveau: 0.0.16-pre20100807 nouveau-drm: 20100520 (20100811 only usable with 2.6.35, I'm still on 2.6.34) Mesa not in use, this happens on starting X11.
