Hi All,
If I use kernel-2.6.8-1.521 or kernel-2.6.7-1.494.2.2 with FC2 I get the following error logged about every second to the console:

However if I use kernel-2.6.6-1.435.2.3 then none of these messages appear.
The system appears to function correctly despite these messages. Does anyone have any idea as to their cause and if stability is likely to be affected?
Thanks Dave Hawkes
