That's acceptable to me. I'm assuming that if the radeon.ko and drm.ko
modules get loaded early (from initrd), that the log instance will still
be in the dmesg ring buffer for when the OS can finally log dmesg to
disk.
I'm still getting spammed every 10 seconds. It's just not as bad now:

My MSI-7302 motherboard apparently has a graphics chipset that supports
DVI, but the motherboard has no physical DVI connector - only a VGA
connector. The invalid EDID data is just junk, and not real data from
that I2C(?) bus. lspci output on the PCIe graphics chipset is below.
If there's any easy way to just stop all the spam about the DVI
connector, I'd be interested.
Regards,
Andy
