Subject: endless APIC error messages..
Date: Mon, 01 Oct 2001 14:15:01 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3BB8DCD5.A2CF293D@lbl.gov> (raw)
Yes, I know, I've got a busted ABIT-BP2 system board.
Running 2.4, I get thousands of the APIC error messages, which fill my
syslog.
Is there a reason for this constant spewing? The short little patch,
that simply does stops the system from complaining any more - it's
busted - we know that.
