Organize driver documentation by device type. Most documents have fairly verbose yet uninformative names, so let users first select a well defined device type, and then search for a particular driver. While at it rename the section from Vendor drivers to Hardware drivers. This seems more accurate, besides people sometimes refer to out-of-tree drivers as vendor drivers.

This file contains the instructions and caveats for my SMC9xxx driver. You
|
|
should not be using the driver without reading this file.
|
|
|
|
Things to note about installation:
|
|
|
|
1. The driver should work on all kernels from 1.2.13 until 1.3.71.
|
|
(A kernel patch is supplied for 1.3.71 )
|
|
|
|
2. If you include this into the kernel, you might need to change some
|
|
options, such as for forcing IRQ.
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. To compile as a module, run 'make'.
|
|
Make will give you the appropriate options for various kernel support.
|
|
|
|
4. Loading the driver as a module::
|
|
|
|
use: insmod smc9194.o
|
|
optional parameters:
|
|
io=xxxx : your base address
|
|
irq=xx : your irq
|
|
ifport=x : 0 for whatever is default
|
|
1 for twisted pair
|
|
2 for AUI ( or BNC on some cards )
|
|
|
