Hello.
I'm "happy" user of Acer aspire 5536 notebook :)
I met one problem with Broadcom BCM5784M network adapter using
FreeBSD 8.0-BETA2 - there is no native support for my ethernet card.
A good news that there is extra patches that adds support for this Broadcom,
and that they works without any problems (at least for me... so far...).
Can somebody please take a look on them here:

and if they are OK, commit them into FreeBSD?
Thanks!
