Thanks, I'll double-check all of that...  Although I'd think it have
bitten me by now if those were to blame.

This specific box has been running -stable for over a year, cvsuped on
average the 1st of each month.  I've got buildworlds from the same
/usr/src that work fine on other boxes, so it seems to be related to the
hardware in this 1550.

I'd noticed others (especially Dell users) have reported similar oddities
of late, so I thought something may have changed recently that caused the
problem to occur.

I'll try the config reset + manual (different) IRQ assignment via BIOS the
next time I'm onsite.
