I can still only get one capture per module insertion.  

When I hit ^C the debug messages tell me a mailbox read failed with a return
code of -16.  I traced thru the source and if you don't get a response to an
API call within 100*10ms (1s) you return -EBUSY.  From my testing today, it
looks like it takes about 4-5s for the card to respond to the EOS message.
Yah, that sounds a bit off.  It may have an inflight DMA.  Not sure what the
problem is :(

Really, I think you need to wait indef. until the card acks the API call. I
think there's a way to reset the card, but it would be best to handle this
properly.

Oh, and can you squelch the interrupt messages?  For whatever reason my
motherboard decided to land it on the same interrupt as my network card.
Not fun flooding my logs everytime I type a character ;)
