Didn't you see a device path with the message?

   I am getting the above message from dmesg and /var/log/messages, over and
over again.  I have just installed Fedora Core 3.  My DVD RW drive and my
SCSI CD burner mount and unmount okay.  I have mounted and mounted two
floppy drives, a USB stick, the CF card from my digital camera, and my
digital camera itself.  I am not 100% certain about the camera.  I did see
some errors on the CF card, which went away after I ran fsck.vfat on it.

   I am actually trying to figure out why my sound card has stopped working,
and I suspect the message has something to do with it.  How do I figure out
what is doing this?
