Hi.
Sorry for my bad english...
Three or four month's ago I was write about a recognition problem with a
Acer Aspire 1605 laptop; it doesn't "see" the realtek ethernet. Today I
download the 5.2-CURRENT-20040804-SESNAP.iso and try, with and without
ACPI, and seem it's continue in the same way; don't work.
M. Warner Losh <imp@bsdimp.com> was contacted with me, but I don't know
if this problem have a solution, if the solution was applied (I think
not), or anything about.
This is the last e-mail I recieved from him:

: Aham... And now? Can I help you? Sorry for the "printf" suggestion,
but
: my C level is so poor... :-/
OK. I've taken a look. I'm thinking that there may be an issue with
the i386 config register reading. src/sys/i386/pci/pci_cfgreg.c, look
at pcireg_cfg{read,write} may be in error. you might try switching
the inb/inw/outb/outw to inl/outl with masking. It likely won't
matter, but it is worth a shot.
===================================================================
Because my programming skills are very very poor, I'm only capable to
help testing and reporting, but I would like to deinstall the Linux from
laptop and install a FreeBSD.
Thank you very much!!

BSD is what you get when a bunch of Unix hackers sit down to try to port
a Unix system to the PC. Linux is what you get when a bunch of PC
hackers sit down and try to write a Unix system for the PC
