Bug Description
Modern USB NIC adapters (USB2.0 / Gb networking) mostly use the asix chipset. In order to support them in the installer, we need to have the asix minimodule enabled. It's currently missing from the list in nic-usb-modules.
Example device currently not supported:
Trendnet TU2-ETG USB to Gigabit Ethernet adapter
0b95:1780 ASIX Electronics Corp. AX88178
Double-checked with Colin:
<cjwatson> ttx: asix> ask the kernel team to add it to nic-usb-modules - it seems perfectly reasonable to me, but I'd just be proxying your request through to the kernel team anyway :)

Hi Thierry,
Just want to double check you need this for Lucid correct?
