I’m not sure that the NIC on one of the most popular Asus motherboards is really outside of everyday user territory. In my case, it’s a realtek onboard ethernet chip.
On a “normal” distro the drivers for this are pretty easy to install, and is definitely something an everyday user could achieve (double click a single file in the download from realtek).








I loved that phone… As soon as I put Cyanogen on it. I voided my warranty on the second week in a rage induced by the home screen taking 30 seconds to load. Samsung always has sucked at software.
