The configuration parser uses __driUtilMessage to print this message.
Don't know why this ends up being printed as an error message. Sometimes
this seems to be the last message from the driver before it bails out for
some other reason, so people incorrectly blame it on the missing
configuration file. Should I rephrase the message to clearly state that
this is *not an error* or just not print anything if the file can't be
read?

You wouldn't see this message if the driver didn't support
configuration.
