Well, I'd definitely like to see this fixed properly if possible. If you have any suggestions for how best to figure out what's going on, that'd be great. I could possibly arrange ssh&null-modem access to the system in question in case that makes a difference. I'm pretty new to kernel hacking as I'm sure you can tell, so there are probably (obvious?) debugging options I haven't yet explored... > Unfortunately, you are kind of far away for me to lend you hardware... Do you know of any relatively inexpensive (or very common) hardware that might help? I wasn't really planning to spend any money on this fix, but if it's something I can put to good use (or maybe sell on eBay) after testing then I'm not opposed to the idea.
