	Perhaps immersion in a tub of water would provide more cooling :-).

	When these errors occur, are any other devices on the SCSI bus
active?

	Please read the information in the kernel sources on how to submit
a kernel bug report.  I need you to send the numbers that are dumped, and
I need you to look up the function names for the backtrace.
