I'm trying to get on the Internet in the W98SE guest. It's not 
recognizing the PCI controller. WHich is, I guess why it's not finding 
the correct NIC, which means I can't get onto the Internet to try 
Starcraft n Battle.Net, which is the whole point of all of this. I don't 
know why the guest won't just use the perfectly- working NIC in the 
linux host.

I used to have a Hardware Browser in fedora 7. It's gone. I remember 
when I did the clean install I had too many panels and panel sub-menus. 
I found a way to consolidate them but I guess, in retrospect, I /did/ 
lose a couple of things. One of them was the Hardware Browser. I'm 
hoping to go in there, find the PCI controller, then tell W98SE guest 
that that is the controller (and grab the driver from the Internet if 
neccesary).
