  • abrt tainted modules

    Posted on

    I am not able to submit a crash report due to "tainted kernel modules"

    nvidia_drm, nvidia
    even though I am using Intel Skylake GPU. I have a dedicated nVidia GPU, which I had used before. However, after uninstalling the nvidia binary and switching to the integrated GPU, the abrt crash reporter still complains about tainted modules. I have also manually removed the nvidia modules from
    /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/
    , but the issue persists. Any idea why this is still an issue or how I can resolve this?

    Lastly,

    lsmod
    shows no mention of "nvidia".

    Any thoughts/input are welcome about the cleanup of nvidia binary files.

    Thanks
