Hi Keith,
I don't know of a USB ethernet module, but 'acm.o' controls modems and ISDN
adapters.
You probably already know this, but there are two different mainboard chipset
implementations, each requiring a different module in order to enable the
onboard USB controller... modules 'usb-uhci.o' and 'usb-ohci.o' . You can
tell which one you need to use by checking out the response to the following
command (as root) lspci -v | grep USB. Use of the wrong one could give either
no connectivity, or weird performance.
