Chuck and/or Dave (Jones), can one of you summarize the list of bugs you ran 
into last time you enabled MSI unconditionally on Fedora?  Maybe we can 
convert the errors you saw into new blacklist entries...  If things break 
horribly everytime you try MSI, I can't really blame you for disabling it, 
but it would be nice if we could make some progress here.

Thanks,
Jesse
