Description Jure Repinc 2011-06-24 06:09:08 UTC
Recently I just built a new PC with ASUS P8H97 motherboard (using BIOS 1003) and I noticed this error in dmesg output:

I'm not sure if this is an error in kernel or in BIOS, as so far all seams to work fine, but I decided to file a bug report just in case. Where should I be looking for manifestations of bug and if this is a BIOS bug, what should I report to the tech support?
