Fw: My Cardbus and Xircom Realport Ethernet II 10/100 experience...

2000-10-24 Thread Ron Klinkien

 
 Nice work those pccard stuff...
 

Ahum I ment cardbus stuff.. ;-)

Anyway my Xircom Realport II Cardbus 10/100 Mb card works ok now
It's one of those red double height ones with a RJ45 jack built into it...

Maybe something to mention in the docs to use the dc driver with it.

Ron.

 We need a good way to list known supported cards (not just pccard or
 cardbus) in a driver's man page.

Maybe an idea to create a new man section for supported hardware info,
that way you can store this kind of info for all kinds of drivers, scsi,
video etc..
eg.
man dc 4 gives general info about dc driver
man dc 'x' gives list of supported hardware for this driver.

You only have to include an pointer for the user in the original man page,
and
list it under the SEE ALSO line.

Just my 1 eurocent...

Not only in the man page. You already need to know enough to find the right 
man page. Sounds we need a 'supported hardware database'. Which smells
suspiciously like real work to me..
