A handful of device drivers have been written from scratch. Some
devices started working when their PCI IDs were added to existing
drivers. Most of 9front's drivers will probably work with any Plan 9
(I know Erik has adopted at least the BCM57xx driver for 9atom). I'm
not sure how much AC97, HDA and SB16/ESS rely upon 9front's changes to
how audio is handled; cinap should be able to answer audio related
questions. Wacom WACF004/WACF008 support is provided by a userland
program that relies upon a small change to the serial port driver.
The following page is a fairly complete list of 9front's new features:

while this page describes the hardware that is currently seeing the
most testing:
