Resending this since all I'm getting is silence and it's quite a problem for
this box. I did a few google searches and aparently I'm not the only
one having this problem - I see reports going back for years, but no
solutions.
I've got heaps of dmesg output if wanted/needed, I'll test patches,
suggestions etc.
Any ideas people?
