Great of you guys to offer help.  I'm going to try the card0/card1 thing
first, then we'll all know for sure what happened.  But no guarantees when
I'll get to it; Wifeski is making me move the house a foot to the left
again this weekend.  Then assuming I still have some life in me, I'll take
a crack at the config.
