There is a known problem in some hardware implementations of the 2312 
and possibly other
chips - parity errors in the firmware RAM will lock up a system. The 
last time I looked the public driver did not have a configuration option 
to do this. If it's not there let me know and I can dig the lines up for 
you to try.
