I figured you'd get a kick out of that. ;-)
Even though basic is such a kludge, I still find myself
sometimes thinking "next" at the end of a for loop. Those old
habits never do seem to completely go away. I probably need to do
more programming in a real language (python, for instance) to
completely exorcize that demon.

(like removing entire packages so you don't have to keep track
of where each file is hidden)

Check your /var/log/dmesg file to see what's detected and
recognized on boot.
That should at least give you a starting point. If you don't
have it, I can send you the CDROM-HOWTO.
