I am supposed to have hardware on it's way that will allow me to look at

This is known, it is related to the switch to pciaccess, and AFAIK the
issue is currently the same with linux.  I don't know the specific
reason that secondary boards don't work at the moment.  I hopefully will

Meanwhile, I'll poke around and see if anyone is looking into it.
