Date: Wed, 27 Oct 1993 20:52:23 GMT Dnas-Posting-Host: loafer.kutsuda.kuis.kyoto-u.ac.jp Lines: 21 To NE2100 users: A patch to make the driver of ISOLINK to work also with NE2100 is avairable. You can get it from ftp.kuis.kyoto-u.ac.jp:/BSD/386bsd-fj/NE2100/FreeBSD-1.0-EPSILON.patch This patch is also avairable for NetBSD-0.9 (You may see some warnings when patching, but ignore them), but you cannot apply it to NetBSD-0.8. I have tested the driver on my 486DX50-ISA and my NE2100-compatible card. But I'm not sure if the driver works on Novell's "REAL" NE2100 cards. I also want to make it sure that the patched driver still works on ISOLINK cards. If you are interested and want to be a beta-tester, please get the patch and send me the result. If no major problem exists, I want to contribute this patch to NetBSD/FreeBSD developement group. Sorry for my funny English. ---- UEHARA, Tetsutaro -- Tsuda Lab., Dept. of Info.
