I'm going to try a non-SMP kernel tonight to see if that does
anything.  The other thing that is tickling my mind is the shared
interrupts, USB, SCSI, and Network card all sharing the same one.  I
understand this is much more common now, but the problem looks similar
to a slowly or mis-handled interrupt.  Anyone know how to force USB to
it's own interrupt?
