I see. Actually we had both a cursor/speed problem and the
message. But I now see how the message went away.

thanks

vganvidia.c was updated on the 6th (or 7th) of April and the 'fifo
stat...' message disappeared from it:

/n/dump/2004/0415/sys/src/9/pc/vganvidia.c:385,458 c /n/dump/2004/0407/sys/src/9/pc/vganvidia.c:263,264

so your troublesome kernels must be older ones...  i haven't
recompiled since (though i must now, to get geoff's ipv6 changes in)
so i don't know whether my cards will experience any problems with the
changed vganvidia.c...
