It is busy in that I am generating some data on it for my research
group (but I am the only user); however, my sundays are my own, so I
was able to apply the patch (by hand; patch(1) didn't like it) and
recompile.

I have two (verbose) dmesgs that are available, should be
https://netfiles.uiuc.edu/kaduk/www/current/dmesg.bfe.128
and
https://netfiles.uiuc.edu/kaduk/www/current/dmesg.bfe.511
respectively; hopefully they will help

I am currently running the 511 kernel; the 128 didn't find an IP via dhcp.

Thanks for investigating this,
