[TriLUG] Weird dual-monitor bootup hang

[Brian]

Hi gang,

I am having an interesting problem.  Lately, my Debian 3.2.41 x64 system 
seems to have a hang during boot, which appears to have to do with the 
order in which my two video cards are detected (at least, that's my best 
initial guess).  I have two monitors; the left-hand is supposed to be 
the primary, and the right-hand the secondary.  The BIOS is set to use 
the left-hand monitor as the bootup monitor.  Sometimes, the console 
flips over to the right-hand monitor and the left-hand shuts off, and 
the system hangs.  Other times, the console stays on the left and the 
system boots up fine.

Sometimes the hanging boot ends with a message that says something like 
"cannot set frequency 24000 to ep 0x86", which appears to be related to 
my Logitech webcam, according to Google.  However, I still see a similar 
message (but the frequency is 16000) when boot succeeds.

I'm not even sure where to start googling this.  Does this sound 
familiar to anyone?

Thanks!
