Hello:

I got this message printed to the console today,
followed by the system becoming non-responsive
(although keystrokes were echoed to the screen):

mesh0: timeout state 3
mesh: resetting dma

A little searching around found this problem report
which seems to track the problem back to NetBSD
1.5.2 at least:

http://www.netbsd.org/cgi-bin/query-pr-single.pl?number=15290

If I'm reading that report correctly, it also says
that the problem was fixed.

I'm running the generic 2.0 kernel on a Power-
Mac 7300.  I was compiling something when this
occurred, and the report does mention slow SCSI
peripherals being the culprit.

Should this be re-reported?
