That works, but it doesn't come up after I power it back on.  Maybe
I'm just not waiting long enough for it.  How would I go about
unloading any troublesome modules that may be causing this?  Are there
any modules known to cause this problem?  I'm not there right now, but
I can send the output of `lsmod` tomorrow.  Now, it's time for
sleep.........

I was thinking that writing a shell script that unloaded the modules
and then ran the command.  Then I'd execute that shell script from the
battery monitor applet.  Is that a good thing to do????

Thanks a lot!
