Well, something has definitely changed. I just updated a system which had DE cards in it (2) which was *NOT* giving these messages from a kernel which was built in mid-June to one which is current. The messages started. In fact, I'm getting these now on both cards. I looked quickly at the de driver revision history, and it looks like major changes were made to the code -- and somewhere in there, this started. Anyone got any ideas what's going on? This is a Natoma chipset board, by the way. -- -- Karl Denninger (karl@MCS.Net)| MCSNet - Serving Chicagoland and Wisconsin http://www.mcs.net/~karl | T1's from $600 monthly to FULL DS-3 Service | NEW!
