I disagree with Haavard. Without the reset my sam9261 would exhibit DAT0 
contention, early interrupts, and other problems. Adding the reset was a 
major improvement. I emailed you some screenshots on April 10 2009 that 
demonstrate my testing. Let me know offline if either you or Havaard did 
not get the email and I can resend.

Maybe the problems are limited to this chip? We should discuss this further.
