I don't see any obvious errors in dmesg, but using "acpi=off" on boot
seems to work much faster (no delays)...  I'll have to diagnose these
problems tonight when I get home, but do you have any suggestions for
how to debug the long boot pause and/or the fact that the boot process
continues as soon as I touch the touchpad or keyboard?
