Hello there, well its been 5 months since I got this Error Messages in
our Linux Box here in our Office and I've got nothing to run to or to
ask for help and fortunately I keep on browsing on the kernel source
directory and I found the file MAINTAINERS. Before I post the actual
error messages, here's the actual setting in our Office. We use Linux as
our internet gateway and DNS, router and Mail Server, of course this
server is up for 24 hours and everytime it reaches or shall I say its up
time is longer an error message will display on the console and when
I reboot the Linux Box it errors and needs to fsck or e2fsck. I doubt
that the buggy part is at the server's harddrive(seagate 2G) bec.
Seagate harddrive overheats too much. here is the actual error messages
I got from syslog file.

There is also another error messages in the console but sad to say I
cant catch it, but I'm sure it says something about ide0: {seek error}
the message says something is wrong to the ide0 part, well ide0 is an
internal ide0 from our server pentium MMX motherboard. Furthermore to
prove this bug we have to servers running at the same uptime and the
same kernel versions(2.0.34) but different motherboards one with the
error msg is PC partner and the other is branded Intel motherboard(both
are Intel based motherboards). I beleive that the buggy part is in the
hardware internal ide0, well of course I would like to ask if there is a
patch in this error.

Thanks, I beleive in the
Linux Community support

Thank you again,

Elton
