Hi, in 90 minutes of uptime on my Usenet news server, I've gotten this
output from 'dmesg'. Are these transient errors, or problems with the
kernel patch?

Previous to this kernel update I had 5 days of uptime with no kernel
warnings/errors at all. Swapping rarely occurs on this machine.
Hardware:

3 PCI NCR53C810 SCSI2 controllers
P-90
128MB RAM
10 gb of disk, mostly SCSI2, with a 2.5 gb EIDE drive
3c509 card less than a month old
