The NY City BSD Users Group (NYCBUG) is building a catalog of contributed dmesg output that may help you. You can search the submitted dmesg's. The search function is below the dmesg submission form at: http://www.nycbug.org/dmesgd/ I encourage everyone to submit your dmesg output. IP and MAC addresses are replaced with x's for security. I hope this helps.
