A friend of mine is wondering whether he should buy himself a new SATA
controller. The one he has seems unsupported till now in NetBSD:

 Acer Labs product 0x5281 (miscellaneous mass storage, interface 0x85,
 revision 0xa4) at pci1 dev 1 function 0 not configured
 Acer Labs product 0x5228 (miscellaneous mass storage, interface 0x85,
 revision 0xc6) at pci1 dev 1 function 1 not configured

We're just wondering whether somebody is working on a driver for this
one (it seems to be supported by OpenBSD; maybe somebody is already
porting it). If so, we may wait a little for it to arrive instead of
going for another shopping round.

Feico.
