Package: network-manager
Version: 0.8-1
Severity: normal

Hi,

I installed Debian Lenny on an DEC Digital Personal Workstation
433au (Miata) machine and upgraded it to unstable later on. Checking
the syslog, I found the following messages from network-manager which
I have seen on Alpha machines so far only. I have seen these messages
on other Alpha machines as well, also with various kernel versions
but haven't seen it reported before.

Here is what I get in the syslog, directly during boot when network-manager
is started:

the messages repeat after some time:

I suspect it to be related with this problem with the tulip driver module in the kernel, as it produces
a lot of these messages:

I the Alpha port is not that popular anymore and has been dropped for Squeeze, but maybe these problems might also
occur on non-Alpha systems. But as long the Alpha port is in unstable, I think it's good to report these problems.
