More information about this can be found littered throughout recent questions@ archives, however a quick summary is that a stray irq is an interrupt that came in, but couldn't be matched to an actual device. I believe all requests like this are routed through irq 7 and freebsd prints a happy message for you. General consensus seems to be a) it doesn't hurt anything and b) somebody will get around to fixing it eventually. -- Benjamin Krueger "Life is far too important a thing ever to talk seriously about." - Oscar Wilde (1854 - 1900) ---------------------------------------------------------------- Send mail w/ subject 'send public key' or query for (0x251A4B18) Fingerprint = A642 F299 C1C1 C828 F186 A851 CFF0 7711 251A 4B18 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
