That is a good point. I looked at what usb/ether supports and bought
an Arkview USB-G1000.

I'm trying to get my circa 2006 laptop working with Plan 9.
Its a Gateway MX3414 with:
North Bridge: NVIDIA C51MV
South Bridge: MCP51 - ignored
NVIDIA GeForce Go 6100 graphics - works fine with 1024x768x16 VESA
NVIDIA MCP51 ethernet controller - not detected
NVIDIA MCP51 PATA controller - buggy? s
