[ltp] Alarming boot messages...

[paul marwick]

I'm currently running Vector Linux 5.9 beta, which uses a 2.6.22.9 
kernel. I'm loading thinkpad_acpi using /etc/rc.d/rc.modules.

On a few occasions, during boot, I get a number of messages like this:

hub 1-0:1.0: over-current change on port 3

Going through dmesg on those occasions, I have this:

thinkpad_acpi: ThinkPad ACPI Extras v0.14
thinkpad_acpi: http://ibm-acpi.sf.net/
thinkpad_acpi: ThinkPad EC firmware 1RHT71WW-3.04
hub 1-0:1.0: over-current change on port 3
hub 1-0:1.0: over-current change on port 4
hub 3-0:1.0: over-current change on port 2
hub 3-0:1.0: over-current change on port 1
hub 1-0:1.0: over-current change on port 3
hub 3-0:1.0: over-current change on port 2
hub 3-0:1.0: over-current change on port 1

The machine is a T40. I've also got Zenwalk 4.8 installed, which uses 
the same level of kernel, though I've never seen the same message when 
it boots.

Any suggestions?
