Bah.  I just saw a double probe case.  I forgot to ``initialized=1''
to main.c  when I put in the fix for the menu code so the NICs were being
reinitialized every time through main_loop.  

And while I am thinking about it another way to see messages that are
scrolling to fast is to put a delay into the printf after the messages
is printed, sorry I think in terms of serial console first because you can
let it spew and then look back to see what actually happened.
