Ok, maybe I asked this before, but...
In the last line of the output from dmesg on OpenBSD 2.8/SPARC
running on a SPARCstation 1+, I noticed the following:
"zs1b: fifo overrun"
is this a potentially serious problem or can I safely ignore it?
(I seem to be seeing something about fifo overruns about twice =

a day, usually in xconsole, doesn't hang or barf though.
