[9fans] driver list

[Charles Forsyth <forsyth@terzarima.net>]

i reiterate with more detail:

is there a page somewhere--the wiki seems best because people can
just add to it directly--that lists hardware that someone has got or
might like to use, where there are specs for the hardware but no Plan 9 drivers as yet.
if not, such a list might be useful, especially for driver writers who find themselves
with a long night or a rainy afternoon with nothing to do.
it would be helpful to include a reference to the spec(s).  associated
offers of cards might also be useful, particularly where the hardware is obscure.

if the specs are not available for something one could note that driver source
for Linux or BSD exists.  if it's not in the kernel tree for that system, an http or ftp
reference to the site that contains it would be helpful.

this might at worst produce nothing, but more likely it would produce
one or two drivers for easy-to-drive devices,
which would surely be better than nothing.   i can even think of a few cases where
drivers might already exist and merely need to be resurrected from an
earlier edition or transferred from Inferno.
