The good news is that both boards -turned on and worked right the first time, but only after working around what -appears to be an icky bug in the kernel cdc_acm driver. We've seen various -problems with this driver before, but for some reason my ability to talk to -our programming dongle failed hard this weekend. In the process of digging -around for helpful info online, we discovered that the usbserial driver can -be made to work with our boards, and are pondering switching. More on that -later. - -Building these two boards used up the last of my cache -of the expensive parts, and we'd like a few more boards for upcoming launch -events like [Chili Blaster](http://www.scronline.net/html/chili_blaster.html) -and [NCR Oktoberfest](http://ncrocketry.org/modules.php?name=Oktoberfest), so -I ordered more parts... and as of this morning they've started arriving.
