As I haven't heard back, I presume that the dmesg with debug
enabled was insufficient to diagnose the problem.  I did try to
load up the experimental kernel, but there were two libraries (as
I recall, my notes are unavailable just now) that were
dependencies, and they weren't available.

I've been to kernel.org to get the suggested kernel, but haven't
managed to build it yet.  I'll try today and let you know.

Thanks for the assistance so far.
