Thanks to:

Sean O'Connell <sean_at_stat.Duke.EDU>
Rodrigo Poblete <rpoblete_at_gmd.com.pe>
who all gave me the same info, basically:
1. swap cards (with power off of course)
2. reboot system, boot with genvmunix kernel
watch for diags about tga card
3. add lines for tga card, recompile another custom kernel.
