instead of randomly switching distributoins, why not investigate what hardware is actually supported and install such hardware?
you can easily move drivers from 9atom or labs or 9front any way arround. it doesnt matter. rules of acquisition: get a intel gigabit nic for example. look in the driver what models are supported. buy it somewhere. this would solve the problem much chaper than getting your hardware to someone willing to write a driver for it. the great nagus will agree. -- cinap
