i had the same problem on my Feisty desktop, and i found out the reason for the message. Previously i had added the Gnome Systems Monitor to my desktop, and when i switched to TTY i had the same message repeating on the screen.
Then i remove the Gnome System Monitor from my desktop panel and the message disappear. I am using a 3com NIC as well. -- pci_set_power_state errors in tty0 console https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/66963 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
