There has been a workaround suggested, but I'm not sure I'm providing the correct setting which has to be placed in /boot/loader.conf: hw.intr_storm_threshold="1000" I didn't have this message when using parallel printer on FreeBSD 5. As you stated, the message repeats many times, but doesn't seem to have any effect on printing. -- Polytropon >From Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ...
