Subject: spurious interrupt with 2.4.10 and higher ?
Date: Thu, 6 Dec 2001 20:58:04 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200112062048.45316@xsebbi.de> (raw)

hi all!

For a long time, I receive at boot time (and in /var/log/warn) the following 
message from the kernel:

Spurious 8259A interrupt: IRQ7

Could you tell me please, what is it? My System works fine but I hate this 
message. :-)

Do you need more information?
