NAME

     sn -- Ethernet driver for SMC91Cxx based cards

SYNOPSIS

     To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following lines in your kernel configuration file:

	   device sn

     Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the following line in loader.conf(5):

	   if_sn_load="YES"

DESCRIPTION

     The sn device driver supports SMC91Cxx based ISA and PCMCIA cards.

HARDWARE

     The sn driver supports SMC91Cxx based ISA and PCMCIA cards including:

     o	 3Com Megahertz X-Jack Ethernet PC Card XJ10BT, XJ10BC
     o	 3Com Megahertz XJEM and CCEM series: CCEM3288C, CCEM3288T, CCEM3336, CEM3336C, CCEM3336T, XJEM1144C, XJEM1144T, XJEM3288C, XJEM3288T,
	 XJEM3336
     o	 Farallon EtherMac PC Card 595a
     o	 Motorola Mariner Ethernet/Modem PC Card
     o	 Ositech Seven of Diamonds Ethernet PC Card
     o	 Ositech Jack of Hearts Ethernet/Modem PC Card
     o	 Psion Gold Card Netglobal Ethernet PC Card
     o	 Psion Gold Card Netglobal 10/100 Fast Ethernet PC Card
     o	 Psion Gold Card Netglobal 56k+10Mb Ethernet PC Card
     o	 SMC EZEther PC Card (8020BT)
     o	 SMC EZEther PC Card (8020T)

     The sn driver supports the SMC 91C90, SMC 91C92, SMC 91C94, SMC 91C95, SMC 91C96, SMC91C100 and SMC 91C100FD chips from SMC.

     The Farallon EtherWave and EtherMac card came in two varieties.  The ep(4) driver supports the 595 and 895 cards.	These cards have the blue
     arrow on the front along with a 3Com logo.  The Farallon 595a cards, which have a red arrow on the front, are also called EtherWave and
     EtherMac.	They are supported by the sn driver.

NAME

     xe -- Xircom PCMCIA Ethernet device driver

SYNOPSIS

     To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following line in your kernel configuration file:

	   device xe

     Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the following line in loader.conf(5):

	   if_xe_load="YES"

DESCRIPTION

     The xe driver supports PCMCIA Ethernet adapters based on Xircom CE2- and CE3-class hardware.  This includes devices made by Xircom along with
     various OEM manufacturers.

     Please note that the xe driver only supports PCMCIA cards and their Ethernet functions.  xe does not support the on-board modem device
     located on some version of the Ethernet/modem combo cards.  In particular, Xircom RealPort2 cards are not supported by this driver.

     The xe driver supports the following media types:

     autoselect  Enable autoselection of media type and options.

     10Base2/BNC
		 Select 10Mbps operation on a BNC coaxial connector.

     10BaseT/UTP
		 Select 10Mbps operation on a RJ-45 connector.

     100BaseTX	 Select 100Mbps operation.

     Note that 100BaseTX operation is not available on CE2-class cards, while the 10Base2/BNC mode is only available on CE2-class cards.  Full-
     duplex operation is currently not supported.  For more information on configuring network interface devices, see ifconfig(8).

HARDWARE

     The xe driver supports the following cards:

     o	 Xircom CreditCard Ethernet (PS-CE2-10)
     o	 Xircom CreditCard Ethernet + Modem 28 (PS-CEM-28)
     o	 Xircom CreditCard Ethernet + Modem 33 (CEM33)
     o	 Xircom CreditCard 10/100 (CE3, CE3B)
     o	 Xircom CreditCard Ethernet 10/100 + Modem 56 (CEM56)
     o	 Xircom RealPort Ethernet 10 (RE10)
     o	 Xircom RealPort Ethernet 10/100 (RE100)
     o	 Xircom RealPort Ethernet 10/100 + Modem 56 (REM56, REM56G)
     o	 Accton Fast EtherCard-16 (EN2226)
     o	 Compaq Microcom CPQ550 Ethernet/Modem PC Card
     o	 Compaq Netelligent 10/100 PC Card (CPQ-10/100)
     o	 Intel EtherExpress Pro/100 PC Card Mobile Adapter 16 (Pro/100 M16A)
     o	 Intel EtherExpress Pro/100 LAN/Modem PC Card Adapter (Pro/100 M16B)

     Other similar devices using the same hardware may also be supported.

DIAGNOSTICS

     xe%d: Cannot allocate ioport
     xe%d: Cannot allocate irq	A fatal initialization error occurred while attempting to allocate system resources for the card.

     xe%d: Unable to fix your %s combo card  A fatal initialization error occurred while attempting to attach an Ethernet/modem combo card.

     xe%d: watchdog timeout: resetting card  The card failed to generate an interrupt acknowledging a transmitted packet.  May indicate a PCMCIA
     configuration problem.

     xe%d: no carrier  The card has lost all contact with the network; this usually indicates a cable problem.

BUGS

     Supported devices will fail to attach on some machines using the NEWCARD PC Card framework.

     Automatic media selection is usually unreliable.
