Yes, and success! I have an Acer also but it uses the b43 driver.
Since the gui tools locked up I went back to drakconnect and tried to
configure the wireless interface. It required firmware files but I
installed them using my key drive the same way I installed the kernel
firmware package. After I successfully installed the firmware the
system boots normally and both NICs work.
Is this a known bug? If not, what package should I file a bug report
against?
If you google "linux freeze atl1c" you'll get a bunch of hits, but it's
not really clear which driver is causing the problem. Probably atl1c,
since not all of those affected are using Broadcom wireless.
