These are the ones I intend to start with, except for audio which can
wait a bit. And then ethernet of course, once I get the adapter. The
first thing to do is to move the port over to use MI WSCONS I suppose.
I don't have any idea how to do that though, so if someone could give
me a hand it would be appreciated. :-)

There are some devices such as the modem which is not explored enough,
but the ones you mentioned above can be done with the info I have
today.
