I correct myself one more time:
  - notebook:  FreeBSD 5.2.1 + ACPI enable  => USB ok
  - notebook:  FreeBSD 5.3   + ACPI enable  => USB ok
  - notebook:  FreeBSD 5.3   + ACPI disable => USB ok

  - desktop:   FreeBSD 5.2.1 + ACPI enable  => USB ok
  - desktop:   FreeBSD 5.3   + ACPI enable  => USB ko :(
  - desktop:   FreeBSD 5.3   + ACPI disable => USB ok

>  The desktop is the machine equipped with the MSI K7T266 Pro2 motherboard.
>  Note: the BIOS firmware is up to date with the last revision available.
