Upon booting 2.6.21 kernel on my HP500 notebook I get a kind of weid
info message which I've pasted below.
I'm using a custom 2.6.21-1.3116 kernel [I've included a small patch in
drivers/input/serio/i8042.c to get my touchpad going (BZ #230595)] and
reiserfs for filesystem. I'm not experiencing any problems with my
system and I definitely have no ideea what this error(?) is about.
Any ideas?
