trick 'o the day: keep kernel messages from messing with rio:
	window -hide rc -c 'label kmesg ; tail -f /dev/kprint'
as long as you have someone reading kernel messages, they won't
be written directly to the screen.

what happens when you do the following:

	slay usbd|rc
	slay disk|rc
	usb/usbd; usb/disk -l
