# 79727 14-Jul-2001 schweikh

Removed whitespace at end-of-line; no content changes. I simply did
cd src/share; find man[1-9] -type f|xargs perl -pi -e 's/[ \t]+$//'

BTW, what editors are the culprits? I'm using vim and it shows
me whitespace at EOL in troff files with a thick blue block...

# 66690 05-Oct-2000 wpaul

Add the card ID for the Am79c975 PCnet/FAST III card. This is a variant
of the Am79c973 with "AlertIT Technology," whatever that is. Also mention
support for the PCnet/FAST III cards in the documentation. The
PCnet/FAST III chips have integrated 10/100 PHYs.


# 66592 03-Oct-2000 wpaul

Add support for the AMD Am79c976 PCnet/PRO controller chip. For now
this just involves adding the chip ID to the supported list: the PCnet/PRO
is compatible with the PCnet/FAST+ and friends and should "just work"
with this driver.

Also try to handle mbuf allocation failures in the receive handler
more gracefully.


# 66196 21-Sep-2000 wpaul

Make some small line-break tweaks.

Submitted by: Sheldon Hearn


# 66131 20-Sep-2000 wpaul

Add a new driver for the AMD PCnet/FAST, FAST+ and Home PCI adapters.
Previously, these cards were supported by the lnc driver (and they
still are, but the pcn driver will claim them first), which is fine
except the lnc driver runs them in 16-bit LANCE compatibility mode.
The pcn driver runs these chips in 32-bit mode and uses the RX alignment
feature to achieve zero-copy receive. (Which puts it in the same
class as the xl, fxp and tl chipsets.) This driver is also MI, so it
will work on the x86 and alpha platforms. (The lnc driver is still
needed to support non-PCI cards. At some point, I'll need to newbusify
it so that it too will me MI.)

The Am79c978 HomePNA adapter is also supported.
