I'll check later today, but i guess you'll know (see below).

Well, I can do that, but I don't think it will help.

It just looks like the chip is not responding at all at that point.

It's the Dell 9360. :-)

Sometimes after a reboot or a power cycle it starts in a state in which the

appear to be dead or at least really flaky.  Basically, the box needs to be
power-cycled again to get rid of this condition and then everything works.
