It's a friend's machine, which I normally only have remote access to,
so it's a bit pf a pain, but I can manage.  I just thought a basic
i3 motherboard was so common I couldn't possibly be the only one with
this problem.

Here's the 3.2 dmesg showing the fallback working, but this is an
Ubuntu-patched kernel (linux-image-3.2.0-29-generic) that may be a fair
distance from stock:
