Ok, lets try another test...  There is a scanpci util in the
libpciaccess port.  We don't install it, but it does get built.  Build
the port and run scanpci -v as root from the console.  That should poke
all the pci devices on the box and tell you about them.  See if that is
able to trigger the issue.
