Hey folks. I know it's improper to ask multiple questions in a single message, especially unrelated, but please indulge me here. I found the following in my security check output mail message: > Oct 16 13:56:25 leblanc /kernel: pid 86613 (cheetah), uid 118: exited on signal 11 (core dumped) > ad0: WRITE command timeout tag=0 serv=0 - resetting > ata0: resetting devices .. ata0-master: DMA limited to UDMA33, non-ATA66 compliant cable Now, the first is just one of many I get from the multitude of xscreensaver dumps. I am always having to clean up the *.core files from the various screensaver programs that just dump for whatever reason. Anyone know of a way to *prevent* these dumps? Other than the obvious "don't run xscreensaver" or "don't run the random screensavers". The random screensavers is my FAVORITE part of the xscreensaver. Failing any real solution, I'll probably just continue to clean out the cores. Maybe even search the ports archives for any references. The next two concern me a bit more than the screensaver cores. Quite a bit more. I haven't a clue what the problem here is, but ad0 is my only hard drive, so write failures are a bit concerning. And what does "non-ATA66 compliant cable" mean? The system is a Cyber Computer Technology system. Here are some dmesg entries that may be relevant: . . . atapci0: <Intel PIIX4 ATA33 controller> port 0xf000-0xf00f at device 7.1 on pci0 ata0: at 0x1f0 irq 14 on atapci0 ata1: at 0x170 irq 15 on atapci0 . . . ata0-master: DMA limited to UDMA33, non-ATA66 compliant cable ad0: 17206MB <WDC AC418000D> [34960/16/63] at ata0-master UDMA33 acd0: CDROM <ATAPI CD-ROM DRIVE 40X MAXIMUM> at ata0-slave using PIO4 afd0: 120MB <LS-120 VER5 00 UHD Floppy> [963/8/32] at ata1-master using PIO3 . . . ad0: WRITE command timeout tag=0 serv=0 - resetting ata0: resetting devices .. ata0-master: DMA limited to UDMA33, non-ATA66 compliant cable . . . Any ideas?
