Description Sami Liedes 2010-10-02 10:58:54 UTC 
After starting X in a computer with kmemcheck turned on in kernel config, I get the following warnings when switching to a text console with alt-ctrl-F1:

Comment 1 Daniel Vetter 2012-03-25 14:23:46 UTC 
Without debug information it's pretty much nigh to impossible to reliably decode these. Also, kernel 2.6.35 is rather old. Please reopen if you have up-to-date traces or if you can do the basic decoding.
