| The kernel tried to schedule while in an atomic context. This is forbidden and is always a bug. Since the active process was the X server and you have a proprietary graphics driver loaded, I suggest trying to reproduce the problem without a tainted kernel first. Upstream rarely looks at bugs that are only reproducible in tainted kernels, and I think it is especially unlikely that they would look at a problem with a graphics-oriented process when a graphics-oriented proprietary driver is active. |
