I have a list of drivers here, many of them dated 2001.  
http://paradoxuncreated.com/Blog/wordpress/?p=1608 (MS making me upset as  
usual.)
I am really just looking for better drivers, and thought maybe someone  
knew if more current opensource versions existed. I have not found  
anything online though, so therefore I ask here.

I have also thought about the ReactOS project, and wonder if they have  
more current drivers, seeing as they work on the project currently, I am  
discussing in their forum now, but communication is going slow.

Peace Be With You.
