What driver is it?  Is it in the kernel?  Is it in portage?  Is there even a Linux driver?

I need more information, please.

Moving these so we can remove the "Install CD" component from "Gentoo Linux".

I apologize to everyone for this spam, but according to the bugzilla developers,
this is the only reasonable way to do this.
