	I remember an article a few months back from a user with a 5000
that had a PX and a SFB in the same system. Running the console on the PX
and X on the SFB with no troubles. Probably was in relation to the PMAGB-B
scrolling thread. If I read his dmesg correctly, it looks like both cfb's
are on slot 0, which makes no sense. It almost looks like it's acting as
if the second cfb were in  a TcE. But then again, maybe I'm probably
wrong.
