Linux version 2.6.24-8-server ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) (gcc version 4.2.3 (Ubuntu 
4.2.3-1ubuntu2)) #1 SMP Thu Feb 14 20:42:20 UTC 2008

This is a hardy kernel on gutsy
# cat /etc/lsb-release
DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
DISTRIB_RELEASE=7.10
DISTRIB_CODENAME=gutsy
DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 7.10"

There's an Areca 1230 SATA controller in the system. To trigger the
warning, I can run the Areca command line utility "cli64" which is some
presumably closed source RAID management tool. Or at least it was a
binary download. Running it and asking what disks are attached to the
controller "rsf info" triggers the warning.

I have no idea if this warning matters in the slightest, but thought it
best to report.
