Funny, but I don't have an ethernet interface, and I *did* install the bnet
code. (Unless I'm very much mistaken, X11R4 won't run at all unless you have
the bnet code installed). I still see the message whenever I shutdown.
As you say, the message is essentially harmless, but just installing the
bnet drivers won't cure it...
