I have seen them off and on over the years on various pieces of hardware. They have been few enough to be considered, by me, harmless. I often find "new" error messages when I'm paranoid over something I've recently changed and there is, coincidentally, a network problem somewhere on the Internet. I always suspect my equipment first. > I seem to get an overflow every 30 seconds or so. It hasn't really > hampered my ability to download anything.

It could be caused by the ISP. I'd ask if they perhaps upgraded their access servers or modem code just to be sure. > I'd attach a dmesg, but it's been totally > overwritten by these silo overflows, and I'm not at a point where I > can reboot.

The dmesg from boot is saved in /var/run/dmesg.boot.
