This message will get reset if you use the e2fsck from e2fsprogs
1.41.13 or later.  I recommend using e2fsprogs 1.41.14.

You can translate the "initial error" and "last error" time stamps in
the kernel messages here:

kernel: EXT4-fs (sda10): error count: 5
kernel: EXT4-fs (sda10): initial error at 1301325048: htree_dirblock_to_tree:586: inode 260099: block 1056737
kernel: EXT4-fs (sda10): last error at 1301325083: htree_dirblock_to_tree:586:
inode 260099: block 1056737

via the date command:

% date --date=@...1325048
Mon Mar 28 11:10:48 EDT 2011

% date --date=@...1325083
Mon Mar 28 11:11:23 EDT 2011

(We use seconds since the epoch because we don't want to put time zone
conversion routines in the kernel.)

In any case, it's not a big deal, and you can fix this easily by
upgrading to a newer version of e2fsprogs.
