"Yes", "SB Live!", and "W98SE".

Did it all ... and for SuSE too, though most of that was automagic.  Got 
the motherboard NIC and PCI NIC running as well as both framebuffers (no 
built-in - one AGP, one PCI).

I did encounter a bad disk sector (my first in 14 years of PC ownership) 
not long after the surgery and have had to re-install several packages.  
MMTTY wasn't one initially, but I thought of that this weekend and 
reinstalled during the contest with no change (N1MM Logger was reinstalled 
because there's a new version every week).
