Hi,
is there a specific reason that the following NICs are not (or
shall not be) in GENERIC (at least on i386)?
- if_cas: is compiled as a module, Sun hardware, non-x86 only?
- if_gem: is compiled as a module, Apple/Sun, non-x86 only?
- if_hme: is compiled as a module, Sun hardware, non-x86 only?
If these aren't for i386 hardware, then why would they need to be in
the i386 GENERIC profile?
I didn't told they aren't for i386 (Sun and Apple produce(d) x86
hardware). If they would have been non-x86 drivers (I assume you've
seen the answer from Marius), the bug would have been that they are
build as modules on x86.
Bye,
Alexander.
