I moved this conversation over to the developer list, since I think it
is more apropos.  We have our own custom driver that has been around for
about 3 years.  In the beginning of the development we had gotten this
error, but after a complete rewrite over a year ago, we never got the
error anymore.  Our driver has been tested with many different computers
and the only computer that doesn't work is this one specific Dell
computer.  Furthermore, the RedHat 8.0 (2.4.18-14) kernel with this
computer does not give us any problem, but vanilla 2.4.18/2.4.19 kernels
as well as our modified kernel which is a (2.4.19 with O(1), preemptive,
and low-latency) all give us this error. All the other computers we use
run this modified kernel, and we have never experienced this problem
since the rewrite.  I don't expect people to go through the whole source
of our driver and find the problem, I'm just asking for more information
about this error: what does it mean exactly, and in what ways can it be
caused.

Thanks,

Dan Parks
