Well what I mean is if we can get a picture of it, someone may recognize 
the styling of the case and/or card as being the same as that of a known 
model. Since many of these come from the same factory and are identical 
inside and only vary with markings, that should make locating drivers a bit 
easier.

Also, just because your tray ejects and CD spins doesn't mean the driver is 
right ... my CD-ROM drive ejects and spins and all that under Linux on my 
L100 even when it thinks its a PCMCIA CardBus 10/100 network card! (that 
was before I sorted out the PCMCIA thing and had disabled everything except 
the network card setting in an attempt to get it working).
