Just to avoid confusion: If your bios does *not contain the fix, the kernel should fix it and above line should appear. (It does here with 2.6.10) So if it doesn't in your case (and your bios does not contain that fix), the detection code probably isn't enough. -> This should be fixed in kernel. When you use a fixed bios though, above line should not appear, and your system should be stable.
