radeon 0000:01:00.0: Invalid ROM contents

[hector]

Hi, two weeks ago i installed into my PC the graphic card:

R7 Radeon 260X

Graphics: Card: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD/ATI] Bonaire XTX [Radeon R7 260X]
bus-ID: 01:00.0
Display Server: X.Org 1.15.1 drivers: ati,radeon (unloaded: fbdev,vesa)
Resolution: [email protected]
GLX Renderer: Gallium 0.4 on AMD BONAIRE
GLX Version: 3.0 Mesa 10.4.0-devel (git-742158b 2014-10-14 trusty-oibaf-ppa) Direct Rendering: Yes

My Motherboard is:

Mobo: ASUSTeK model: M4A78T-E v: Rev 1.xx
Bios: American Megatrends v: 3503 date: 04/13/2011

Note: I had built an ATI Radeon HD 3300 GPU by placing R7 Radeon 260X this was deactivated.

Apparently everything works fine..but if I throw the following command in the terminal:

hs1974g@unity7:~$ dmesg | grep -i radeon

My distro is Ubuntu 14.04, drivers radeon (update from ppa's Oibaf), I do not know if radeon driver is working properly ...or if this message is disturbing, some websites i have read that this can be solved by passing the command line grub the parameter radeon.dpm=0...

You can ignore the "Invalid ROM contents" message. It was due to a change in the rom handling code in the pci subsystem. It's harmless.
