There is no solved perse, its just a card that is not supported at this time. You can find the supported PC hardware here: http://www.plan9.bell-labs.com/wiki/plan9/Supported_PC_hardware/index.html additionally I have an IBM t43 and expect to write a driver over the next year (after USB ether gets fixed) its for a Broadcom BCM5751M. Perhaps it might have some similarities if you decide to write a driver for your own card. You might want to try using the new usb/ether interface for now -- thanks to Nemo. +=jt
