New manpages for various Ethernet drivers, that I didn't see manpages for.

Manpage police???  Looking kinda bored there aren't you?  Need something
to do?  :-)  I'm sure there's work here to be done.

Inspired by:	Joerg

2.2-R candidate after Mike gets thru with them.

+EtherExpress ethernet device driver
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Cd "device ix0 at isa? port 0x300 net irq 10 iomem 0xd0000 iosiz 32768 vector ixintr"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+driver provides support for the 16-bit Intel EtherExpress Ethernet
+card based on the Intel i82586 chip.
+.Pp
+If the IRQ is autodetected if the kernel configuration file has "irq?" or
+doesn't specify an IRQ at all.
+.Pp
+.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
+.Bl -diag
+.It "ix%d: WARNING: board is configured for IRQ %d, using %d"
+The IRQ probed from the EEPROM does not match that specified in the kernel
+configuration file.  The IRQ specified in the kernel configuration file will
+be used in this case.
+.It "ix%d: invalid irq (%d)"
+An invalid IRQ was specified.  This is a fatal error.
+.It "ix%d: ixstart: Packet length=%d > MTU=%d"
+The length of the Ethernet packet read was larger than the maxium transfer
+unit allowed.  This message suggests an error in the driver.  It probably
+should be concidered fatal and the driver shut down.  Currently this does
+not happen though.
+.It "ix%d: device timeout"
+The device has stopped responding to the network, or there is a problem with
+the network connection (cable).  Make sure the network connection in use
+is the same one the probe read from the EEPROM.
+.El
+.Pp
+.Sh CAVEATS
+The driver will use the IRQ specified in the kernel configuration file
+if it does not match the board setting.
+The type of network connector used (AUI, BNC, TPE) is probed from the EEPROM.
+If this does not match the interface actually in use, timeout errors will
+occur.
+.Pp
+.Sh BUGS
+Currently the driver does not support multicast.
