You should have done it *before* rebooting, because dmesg reports only
recent kernel messages. All old messages are lost after a reboot - but
you will find them in /var/log/messages or /var/log/syslog - depending
on your distribution. Pipe this file through ksymoops:

cat /var/log/messages | ksymoops
