I've been getting the message "ide1: unexpected interrupt, status=0x51, count=1" on my laptop since installing potato (I had no such problems before, when I had Slackware 7.0). It only does this occasionally, and it never seems to do it when I have a CD in the the drive (ide1 is the CD-ROM). Any ideas as to what this could be? -- Morgan [morgan@unibasetech.com] He who sacrifices functionality for ease of use loses both and deserves neither.
