Re: Acer Aspire 1705SMi LNKx?

[Patrick Ale <patrick.ale-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org>]

Hello,

When I use the fixed.dsl you mentioned in your earlyer mail I dont get
the compile errors.
Unfortunately the error messages regarding the PCI0.LNK thingies still
appear for me.
But like I mentioned, I have an Aspire 1703 so maybe for me the
changes you made dont work quite as expected on an Aspire 1705 altho
the earlyer changes that were needed were the same as for me.

I apriciate your efford and time nevertheless. I'll just have to look
a bit further.

Thanks!

Patrick
