Watanabe-san,

I never heard an answer to this:

    Did this test a "bug" fix; or should this maybe be committed into the
    CVS repository for use by others with the same mobo I have?

A stock 10-DEC-2002 10:00 PST kernel still does not give me a working
floppy drive.  Should the latest ACPI import have fixed my problem?
Should a future ACPI code drop fix this problem, or will I forever have
to use a custom .AML with this motherboard?  If this mobo will always
require a custom .AML file I want to commit the one I have and start a
table of mobo/BIOS's and the custom .AML files we offer.
