Hi, I have compiled my own kernel, based on the LPIA sources
(2.6.24-24.59) of Ubuntu 8.04 LTS available at: http://ports.ubuntu.com/

I also get the following WARNING:

The official pre-compiled kernel image (2.6.24-24) from Ubuntu (hardy) for lpia 
architecture (netbooks) also reports the same warning.
Could this be a regression?

See attached the complete dmesg log.
