This seems like it's just changing the timing of the initialization
process, which isn't really any better than the "msleep(2000)".  It's
just dumb luck that it happens to work on the developer's system.

Don't get me wrong, I agree with Michael that this whole situation is
ridiculous, but I don't see why swapping out the entire driver is a
reasonable fix.
