IGPU: Family Specific Matching Fails

Dmesg shows this in it:

*IGPU: family specific matching fails*

I personally don't like the sound of the word fails, makes me think something might wrong and I can't find any answers online anywhere to this.

I would greatly appreciate some insight into this...

THANKS

13" Macbook Pro, Mac OS X (10.5.8)

i think it's something related at graphics card driver. do you have any issues?

it seem the os use a general driver rather than the specific one, but i'm not pretty sure about this.

I've heard someone say it's when the OS is booting up and it's looking at the hardware and the graphics isn't ready and the OS doesn't know what it is, so it gives a failure reply, like I don't know what this is, type of a message...
