Others are, too.

I don't think that it's a lack of willingess of help. Rather, I think it's a
lack of desire to do the homework for you.

There are a number of devices listed at [1], each supported by a different
driver. To find out which will work cards will work "out of the box" with gNS
it seems that, at a high level, you'd need to find out which version of said
driver received support for a given card and then determine if the stock gNS
kernel is new enough to contain that version.

This process would need to be repeated for each card listed to determine
their "out of the box" support in gNS.

I agree with that Quiliro Ordóñez said earlier: It's a task best suited to
doing yourself, rather than expecting others to do it for you.

And now you've put a deadline on it.
