I had previously posted to FreeBSD Questions but found no help there. (http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2007-August/156380.html). I am trying to install -CURRENT, but am unable to get either my wired (msk) or wireless (wpi) cards to function. I am lead to believe that this is an ACPI issue because during a period of trying random things, I installed an i386 version of FreeBSD and turned ACPI off and managed to get msk to function. I have attempted: - Disabling ACPI: Can't find hard drive to mount root. - Changing hw.acpi.osname: Diff of dmesg outputs between all osnames I used that were listed in the ASL showed no real differences. - Booting with full debugging of ACPI. I've created dumps of dmesg (for all things I tried), pciconf, and sysctl. Let me know what information would be useful, and the best way to send it (attached, printed inline, pastebin, etc.). Any help would be appreciated. -- Matthew Anthony Kolybabi (Mak) () ASCII Ribbon Campaign | Against HTML e-mail /\ www.asciiribbon.org | Against proprietary extensions
