It appears to have fixed it. I'm now debugging the amr(4) driver as it 
hangs with a "bad slot 0 completed" message. From the source, that number 
could be any positive integer, but i've never seen it hang with anything 
other than 0 (I've reproduced the problem about 10 times already). It's 
fun stuff... :-)

Thanks,
Andy
