Something wrong with hardware? This is an ECC memory correction. It is OK to see it once in a while, since even 100% working DRAM has failures from time to time (called softerror rate) - therefor the need to have ECC in important systems If however you see a lot of them it is time to replace the faulty memory. -- B.Walter http://www.bwct.de http://www.fizon.de [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-alpha To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
