Is there any way to supress these system messages so I can troubleshoot.
These messages come in at such a rateee I cant accomplish anything because
it overwirtes anything I have dsplayed onm the screen

I read the archives and know that the messages are due to either cable
cabling or irq conflicts.  I know the cable is good becaue I it was running
just fine for months before now and I swapped the cable with a store bought
one to be sure.  The problem came when I was troubleshoting with my ISP to
filter out MAC addresses other than the one I had.  I had to remove the card
and in the process may have messed up the irq assignments process.  I belive
I placed it back in the same slot but unsure.

I noted there are two devices using IRQ 10...dc0 and an unknown pci0 card
which I can only guess is my western digital video card but I am not certain
on that.  I only have the two PCI devices and no ISA ones installed.

Can anyone assist here....with these messages scrolling across my screen
like this it is near impossible to do a simple read of /var/log/messages

Thanks

and thanks to dmaddox who was greatly helpful up until I wore out my welcome
with him.  Sorry for missing that one email....I still can't locate the one
you were talking about.
