Hi everyone, I don't get any pop up error messages, but I do see the
entry also listed in my logs. Some of you may want to check your chipset
or northbridge settings in the BIOS. My ECC settings were hidden inside
those areas.

I turned my ECC on (my BIOS also has multiple settings) and rebooted
with each setting and still have the messages in my logs.

I have had other apps crash on me in Karmic but don't know if they are
related to this. My system is mostly stable so it's hard to say if any
instability is coming from it of the fact that I'm running Karmic before
RC1.

I do see a problem with this though. Memory can become very unstable
when overclocked or even if you have a wrong setting which can
definitely cause crashes, and sometimes a system to not even boot. Also
if you have ever built some computers, you may know how picky some
computers can be about it's memory (example, a stick of memory might
work fine in one motherboard and cause the next one to freeze on boot).

So as far as those that don't have ECC in the BIOS or don't turn it on,
there shouldn't be any errors concerning this (But it seems there are).
Then for those who do have it and have it turned on, there also
shouldn't be this error because the ECC is enabled.

Hope there's a fix coming soon.
