The network cards also don't work in linux-ubuntu9.?(04 or 10 I can't remember) with this machine. I also noticed when attempting to recompile the kernel with all the ath_* options switched on that there are conflicting structure definitions with the ath_rate_* devices - but perhaps this is intentional, I don't know. Which is as far as I got as my install cd turned to cactus as I attempted to reinstall with a larger root partition, to fit the compiled kernel. When I reinstall I can supply further information as required Thankyou -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Problem-network-devices-Acer-Extensa-5635G-tp28219409p28494831.html Sent from the freebsd-acpi mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
