What I do on linux when I have a new device with no drivers is I connect
it, then use the 'lspci' command to find out the info regarding the chipset
it is using. Using (lspci -nnv) gives more detailed info. This info is
shown in the form {XXXX:XXXX]. Mac uses a similar command if not exactly
the same.
Once I have the chipset ID then I can search for the specific needed
drivers.
