It's probably completely unrelated, but I see this (apparently
harmless) similar message when I boot from my stock 2.6.18-ish
snapshot kernel.

Actual dmesg there being
Jun 29 01:22:19 localhost kernel: [   75.960000] kobject_add failed for usbdev4.3_ep81 with -EEXIST, don't try to register things with the same name in the same directory.


Maybe that's why it's familiar; maybe I'm just wasting valuable
e-mail.  I dunno.  It sure freaked me out then (in spite of
not adversely affecting anything).

Anyway, ignore this message.
thanks.
