hiya all,

I've got an Intel Celeron (Northwood) 2.00GHz, so I turned on mtrr in the kernel. Now Im seeing some strange stuff in dmesg:
Code:
PCI: Found IRQ 11 for device 00:02.0
PCI: Sharing IRQ 11 with 00:1d.0
memory : c79e2200
memory : c79e2500
memory : c23de800
mtrr: base(0xe8020000) is not aligned on a size(0x400000) boundary
memory : c79e2780
memory : c79e2680
memory : c79e2c00
memory : c79e2280
memory : c79e2f80
PCI: Found IRQ 11 for device 00:02.0
PCI: Sharing IRQ 11 with 00:1d.0

And I have no idea what this is... is this a problem, or is it just telling me like, that there was a problem and that its solved now? Confused... :?

It doesn't look like an error to me - more like an 'informational message'. Since this stuff is all handled internally by the kernel, I personally wouldn't worry about it. Nothing has actually broken I take it?

Hmmm, do you have any sort of extra debugging enabled somewhere in your kernel? I can't see any 'error' or 'warning' messages, but you are right - there's a lot of seemingly unhelpful guff there.

(being 'not aligned' might be a bonus or a problem - who knows?)
