[driverloader] Re: driverloader and acer laptop

[Marc Boucher]

On some machines (Acer notebooks notably), adapter initialization
sometimes fails due to IRQ routing problems and interference with the video
display. The current workaround is to run "modprobe driverloader" before
the X server starts or with the display switched to a text-console
(Ctrl-Alt-F1).
