Re: Attansic L1e Gigabit Ethernet driver support

I'm sorry, I actually have the same problem than in thread "ACPI problem with
new acer aspire 6930G", I misread the logs and didn't realized that acpi was the
problem, here is my dmesg :

ale0: <Atheros AR8121/AR8113/AR8114 PCIe Ethernet> irq 17 at device 0.0 on pci9
ale0: 0x40000 bytes of rid 0x10 res 3 failed (0, 0xffffffffffffffff).
ale0: cannot allocate memory resources.
device_attach: ale0 attach returned 6

If it is still useful, here is pciconf -lcv for the network card :

ale0_at_pci0:9:0:0:	class=0x020000 card=0x015e1025 chip=0x10261969 rev=0xb0
hdr=0x00
    vendor     = 'Attansic (Now owned by Atheros)'
    class      = network
    subclass   = ethernet
    cap 01[40] = powerspec 2  supports D0 D3  current D0
    cap 05[48] = MSI supports 1 message, 64 bit
    cap 10[58] = PCI-Express 1 endpoint max data 128(4096) link x1(x1)
    cap 03[6c] = VPD

Here is my full dmesg.boot : http://pastebay.com/20666
and my full pciconf -lcv : http://pastebay.com/20667

Cheers,

Franck
