The message comes up in a small window when re-booting;
there is nothing relevant in /var/log/messages .

It doesn't flash by; one has to click on X to close the window.

I am using KDE (with up-to-date Fedora-16).

I think it comes up whenever I re-boot the machine,
whether by going to f=>Leave=>Restart
or on re-starting after f=>Leave=>Shutdown.

Actually, I normally Hibernate,
so I don't see this message that often (maybe twice a week);
and as I said I don't see any deleterious effect.
