This is my implementation of a new network task
|
|
for the Minix kernel. I did it initially to handle
|
|
a 3c501 board (Etherlink), but those board are so
|
|
unstable that it is not worth using them except for
|
|
learning how to implement a driver. When I got a
|
|
3c509b board (Etherlink III) it was easier to
|
|
write the code to handle them.
|
|
|
|
The Minix code in 'dp8390.c' is too specific for the
|
|
National chip set, so what I did was to remove as
|
|
much as I needed of the code dependant from the chip
|
|
and produce a generic task that, I hope, will be able
|
|
to handle many more cards.

Revision 1.2 2002/03/25 14:16:09 lsodgf0
|
|
The driver for the NEx000 has been rewritten to be
|
|
operational with the ACCTON 18xx (an NE1000 clone)
|
|
The I/O routines for 16 bit cards are still untested..

Revision 1.1 2002/02/09 09:35:09 lsodgf0
|
|
Initial revision
|
|
The package is not fully tested, i.e. I had only 3Com
|
|
boards (3c501, 3c503, 3c503/16 and 3c509b) and WD8003.
|
|
I got also a NE1000 clone but it was not fully
|
|
operational and I could not appreciate the results.
|
|
For this reason the changes done to the interface
|
|
to I/O for 8 and 16 bits are not tested.
