Yeah, its clear from this what you want.  It *should* be simple, but I
can't tell the wiring though.

I *think* you want to use sysutils/smp_utils ... maybe.  It sure looks
like its for just this type of thing.  I don't have anything available
to give you more of a clue though.

But, don't do that if you don't have a /dev/ses0 device to talk to in
the first place.  I looked back through the thread and I didn't see that
you tried this way of doing it yet.
