I've done some more research and have found issues pretty much
identical with mine - but since tomorrow is Thanksgiving, I've got
other duties ...
I appreciate the input I've received. I suspect that the solution
- once found - is simpler than updating kernels, but I am open to
that.
More later today (or tomorrow or Friday)
thanks again
