Grumble...  If I get penguinix to boot will you look at

http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=113785
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=118093

These two are more problematic than the NEC.

Before you do that...

	What path are you planning on going down?
	We don't know what broke it: fwcontrol, camera in
	camera mode, or something else we haven't thought of.

	Seems to me that the solution is to look at the
	datasheet and the device driver and figure out what
	isn't getting initialized.  So we need to find the
	datasheet for the NEC.
