Wait 7 days before filing bump requests.

This drive is unstable with...
 lspci | grep VGA
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)

What I am seeing is that my xorg does not start, it just keeps blinking on with a watch cursor, then blinking off, over and over again.  Eventually, all input freezes, and I have to login over the network.
