It is simply an Uh, the original issue was "the sio driver emits this annoying message that it didn't used to which means it must have been broken". I'm simply trying to point out that a) the issue isn't that simple and b) plenty of people are aware of it. If/when someone finds something that's fixable and causes these symptoms, plenty of us would just love to stomp all over the problem.
