This is the first time I've seen this error. Last time I used the printer
was with 2.6.24-rc3 and that time this error did not occur.

System is Pentium D x86_64 kernel running Debian unstable.
Printer is a HP Photosmart P1100 connected via parallel port.

Not sure who should be CCed on this.

ppdev0: registered pardevice
sysctl table check failed: /dev/parport/parport0/devices/ppdev0/timeslice
Sysctl already exists
Pid: 14491, comm: hpijs Not tainted 2.6.24-rc5 #1
