Are these new since the recompile?
I have an old compaq that started getting these errors, in particular the
first. I turned off dma to stop the timeouts, which were frequent but only
in linux, not win95. It's still functioning a year later. It is slow and
noisy, but works. For how long? Who know. (Not a recommendation, since it
may drop dead any minute.)--
