Things went south in a big way.  The new kernel they provided caused so many other I could not let it run long enough to see if it fixed the problem because it broke NFS, broke the console, broke the mouse.  Getting the system back up on the old kernel was a challenge.

     There was another experimental kernel in the developers repository.  I am running on it now.  It does not fix the problem but it provides much more detailed diagnostics that hopefully will enable that process.

     It is 6:30AM now, so I will not be available until after around 3pm this afternoon.  Please feel free to leave a message or mail and I will get back to you as soon as possible.
