Hi all, I would consider myself a Linux newbe, although I have been using RedHat Linux off and on for years. I am currently running RedHat 9 with all updates installed. Below is part of my most recent logwatch email and I have no idea exactly what the errors are. ################### LogWatch 4.3.1 (01/13/03) #################### Processing Initiated: Thu Jul 17 04:02:01 2003 Date Range Processed: yesterday Detail Level of Output: 0 Logfiles for Host: bloodstone ################################################################ --------------------- Kernel Begin ------------------------ WARNING: Kernel Errors Present Error: Illegal request...: 1Time(s) I/O error: dev 08:00, sect...: 8Time(s) sda: I/O error: dev 08:00, sect...: 8Time(s) hdb: packet command error: error=0x54...: 1Time(s) hdb: packet command error: status=0x51 { D...: 1Time(s) ---------------------- Kernel End ------------------------- --------------------- ModProbe Begin ------------------------ Can't locate these modules: sound-service-1-3: 27 Time(s) sound-service-1-0: 32 Time(s) synth0: 9 Time(s) sound-slot-1: 59 Time(s) ---------------------- ModProbe End ------------------------- System Specs: AMD Athlon XP 2100+ CPU 1GB DDR RAM (two 512 MB sticks) MSI 6738 (KM2M Combo Series) Motherboard with the VIA KM266 chipset Integrated NIC (VIA VT86c100A Rhine-II PCI) Integrated Sound (VT8233 AC97 Audio Controller) using the sound Module: via82cxxx_audio Nvidia GeForce2 MX video card hda is a WD 20GB?)
