I recently suggested a change without knowing
too much about how Plan 9 drivers work. Perhaps,
when 'Fpe' is detected, 'tsleep' should be called.
(wouldn't want to hang the whole system until someone
adds some more paper!) Or is the driver scheduled
independently? It is probably best to call 'tsleep'
in any case.
