I don't think there is not so large advantage, but I will not make an objection in that you want to maintain your driver long time. (I don't have access to motherboard with ATK0110 any more.) _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-acpi To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
