So its either I have *two* machines with bad, but only slightly bad,
and in the same way, PCI slots which seem to work fine with any other
card I have (uh, unlikely), or my HD-3000 has gone belly up on me in
some subtle way. The cx8802 part never shows up under lspci on either
machine I've tried it in. Suck.
