Tyler,

I've put together an attempt to fix this, but I haven't uploaded it yet.
Could you please test the packages at:

http://free.linux.hp.com/~ahs3/laptop-net 

and see if that works as you expect?  I'm pretty sure it will, but I'd
sure appreciate a little broader testing before I do an upload.  This
version should not affect the interface in any way during the upgrade.

I've tested this new version on my personal laptop and it appears to
have corrected the problem.
