Is this bug 1566 or another problem?

Thank you Martin, the link you provided was the answer. I'd seen the SuSE information before but didn't recall they posted the entire error message. I now see the error message listed is an exact match to what I'm seeing.

This LWN.net link http://lwn.net/Articles/86835/ did not list the entire error message and was the reason I was unclear. Now I know how to proceed....thank you again!

Best regards,

Bob

p.s. please don't apoligize for your English. I assure you it is far superior to my German! ;)
