But do you see any problems with the network apart from the message? The reason for the message is that there are some bugs in the mace chip which cause it to lock up very occasionally. When the driver detects this condition, it prints this message and tries to reset the chip. If your network keeps working, then it means that the driver successfully got the mace chip going again. > Any ideas about my problem and/or the meaning of the HZ would be > helpful.
