Subject: What is this: skge Ram read/write data parity error
Date: Tue, 07 Mar 2006 16:40:27 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <440DA96B.5010604@isotton.com> (raw)

Hello,

Since some time I'm getting the following log entries under 2.6.15:

Mar  7 05:42:48 tiger kernel: skge Ram write data parity error
Mar  7 05:42:48 tiger kernel: skge Ram read data parity error

Does this mean my hardware is faulty? The error message seems to imply
that, but since I am not experiencing any problems and a comment in
skge.c says

/* Parity errors seem to happen when Genesis is connected to a switch
 * with no other ports present. Heartbeat error??
 */

talking about some other sort of parity error though ("mac parity") I'm
not sure any more. Can anybody enlighten me?	

Thanks,
Aaron
