I guess my next step would be to unload that module and see if the
crash happens while I have usbmon loaded.

I do have the Radeon driver installed, with DRI, etc.

Let me know if you want me to put in debugging messages or try for
more netconsole output. I built a bunch of kernels last night, but
ran out of reboot time (learning git...) to test them. I figured I'd
go back to 2.6.26 and see if I had the problem there. If not, it's a
good start for bisection.

I'll keep poking at this, though tax time is starting to fill my time
right now too. :]
