Please help if you can
 

I get the following message just as my laptop is booting an dhave not got a clue what is causing it.
unknown brdige resource 2 : assuming transparent.

It does not stop anything working as far as i can tell !!! But I am keen to learn what might be causing it .

I have the following setup :
Dell Latitude C810 - built in pci network card (which works)
Mandrake 8.2

I've been using slack for some time and i've NEVER been able to get rid of that message. I do not believe it's an error though as it seems to come up during my PCI bus inits. I know of others who've gotten this and it affects nothing. If you figure it out, please post it and let us know.

nah nothing wrong, it's just a kernel message that for some reason is not suppressed by the "quiet" option in lilo or wherever

Thanx for that !
I am still keen to know why it is if anyone knows.

I have that exact 'error' myself, but all works hunky dory. Could it be that the PCI bridge(s) conform to the standards, but don't give their 'name' when probed...hence their being unknown? Just a thought...since it works Ok, I never asked too much about it.
