Re: [Ndiswrapper-general] Gentoo

[Phill W. <wi...@ma...>]

My appologies on the question about the keyboard locking up.  I 
completely missed it in the FAQ, since it had been working before I 
started messing with my HD parameters.  I'll fix the ACPI init 
parameter, and hopefully that'll fix the problem. (Have to wait till I 
get home for that.)
