I recently purchased a Inspiron 5100 to replace my trusty (if long in the 
tooth) 3800.  I tried 5.0-RELEASE, but issues with the CardBus support 
caused me to revert back to 4-STABLE.  So, is there any work being done on 
the on-board mobile Broadcom NIC's that Dell is putting in their laptops 
these days?

Also, I am trying to get XFree86 4.3 to work, it detects the on-board AGP 
chip as a ATI Radeon Mobility M7 LW (AGP) but barfs initializing. A 
snippet is below, the full log is attached (and will be sent to the 
xfree86@xfree86.org address as well)

-=-
(II) RADEON(0): initializing int10
(==) RADEON(0): Write-combining range (0xa0000,0x20000) was already clear
(==) RADEON(0): Write-combining range (0xc0000,0x40000)
(WW) RADEON(0): Bad V_BIOS checksum
(II) RADEON(0): Primary V_BIOS segment is: 0xc000
(==) RADEON(0): Write-combining range (0x0,0x1000) was already clear
Symbol XAAPatternROP_PM from module 
/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/nsc_drv.o is unresolved!

Any ideas?

Best Wishes - Peter
