gentlemen,

i have been receiving this message since the installation of debian potato 
2.2r4 (kernel 2.2.19) and multiple 2.4.x kernels since then and it just doesn't 
make sense. the computer is a compaq ep/sb series with a 333mhz p2 and 
definately not a 133.

know this is not a critical error, but still annoying... am ofcourse willing to 
test out any patches and if further info is needed please just shout.

please do cc me in on your replies (if any) as i don't subscribe to the list.

thanks in advance,
peter
