[driverloader] Problem with BCM4306 - Acer 1501 LMi

[Linuxant support (Jonathan)]

Hi,

it seems that the DriverLoader module is crashing on the first 
instruction of the Windows XP driver and it is quite possible that it is 
related to the NX feature of your AMD CPU.

Please send at support at linuxant.com the output of 'dumpdiag'. Type the 
following in a root shell:

---
dldrconfig --dumpdiag
---

Just send us the generated file located in /tmp 
('driverloaderdiag.txt'). It'll help us solve the problem.

Regards,
