[driverloader] acer ferrari 4005WLMi with broadcom BCM4318 with 64-bit_Broadcom_54g_Drivers

[Linuxant support (Jonathan)]

Hi,

you have no Windows XP driver installed in this dump, so it's hard to 
figure out what is the source of the problem. You could install one and 
then send us at support at linuxant.com an updated dumpdiag.

Before you do that, we since you are using DriverLoader 2.29 on SuSE 10 
and there is known problems with DriverLoader 2.29 on SuSE 10, we 
recommend that you install the 'SuSE10' patch with the 'dldrconfig 
--patch' command in a root shell or wait for the next release of 
DriverLoader which should be out very soon. The patch will probably not 
fix the problem you currently have however.

Since you have a lot of error messages related to APIC in your 'dmesg', 
you could try to boot with the 'noapic' kernel boot parameter to see if 
there is a difference.
