NAME

       axnet_cs - Asix AX88190 chipset PCMCIA Ethernet Driver

SYNOPSIS

       insmod axnet_cs.o [pc_debug=n] [irq_list=i,j,...]

DESCRIPTION

       Axnet_cs  is  a driver for PCMCIA ethernet cards based on the Asix AX88190 chipset.  These cards are mostly NE2000 compatible but have sev-
       eral bugs that are sufficiently tricky to work around that a separate driver was deemed necessary.  When this driver is bound to a card, it
       allocates  the  next  available	ethernet  device (eth0..eth#).	This device name will be reported in the kernel log file, and passed on to
       cardmgr(8).

PARAMETERS

       pc_debug=n
	      Selects the PCMCIA debugging level.  This parameter is only available if the module is compiled with debugging enabled.  A  non-zero
	      value enables debugging.

       irq_list=i,j,...
	      Specifies the set of interrupts that may be allocated by this driver.

DIAGNOSTICS

       axnet_cs: this is not an AX88190 card!
	      Indicates that this card is probably a normal NE2000 compatible card, which requires the pcnet_cs driver.

       eth#: interrupt(s) dropped!
	      Indicates that the driver did not receive an interrupt notification for some reason.  The driver will poll the card (with a signifi-
	      cant performance penalty) if the problem persists.  The most likely cause is an interrupt conflict and/or host bridge  configuration
	      problem.
