A restart will work also :). For info on what those > arguments mean, doing a "man klogd" will tell you all you need.

As I haven't seen it on any of my other Macs, I thought it was a hardware problem with my LC475. It's interesting to hear others have the same problem and that it's limited to the 475/605 boxes (which are essentially identical motherboards). Dana if you happen to remember what this is related to it would help me in tracking down where/how to handle it in the kernel code. Could it perhaps be related to memory? The frequency of the messages seemed to increase when I upgraded from 36 MB of RAM to 68 MB.
