-.Sh NAME
-.Nm lnc
-.Nd "AMD Lance/PCnet Ethernet device driver"
-.Sh SYNOPSIS
-To compile this driver into the kernel,
-place the following line in your
-kernel configuration file:
-.Bd -ragged -offset indent
-.Cd "device lnc"
-.Ed
-.Pp
-Alternatively, to load the driver as a
-module at boot time, place the following line in
-.Xr loader.conf 5 :
-.Bd -literal -offset indent
-if_lnc_load="YES"
-.Ed
-.Pp
-In
-.Pa /boot/device.hints :
-.Cd hint.lnc.0.at="isa"
-.Cd hint.lnc.0.port="0x280"
-.Cd hint.lnc.0.irq="10"
-.Cd hint.lnc.0.drq="0"
-.Sh DESCRIPTION
-The
-.Nm
-driver provides support for the AMD family of Lance/PCnet Ethernet NICs
-including the Am7990 and Am79C960.
-.Sh HARDWARE
-The
-.Nm
-driver supports the following adapters:
-.Pp
-.Bl -bullet -compact
-.It
-Diamond HomeFree
-.It
-Digital DEPCA
-.It
-Hewlett Packard Vectra 486/66XM
-.It
-Hewlett Packard Vectra XU
-.It
-Isolan AT 4141-0 (16 bit)
-.It
-Isolan BICC
-.It
-Isolink 4110 (8 bit)
-.It
-Novell NE2100
-.It
-Novell NE32-VL
-.El
-.Pp
-Also supported are adapters working with the
-.Xr pcn 4
-driver.
-The
-.Nm
-driver runs these in compatibility mode, thus the
-.Xr pcn 4
-driver should be preferred.
-.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
-.Bl -diag
-.It "lnc%d: Framing error"
-A framing error occurred.
-This means a CRC error also occurred.
-This caused the driver to drop the packet that contained the framing error.
-.It "lnc%d: Receive CRC error
-The received Ethernet frame failed the CRC checksum.
-This caused the driver to drop the packet that failed the checksum.
-.It "lnc%d: Packet dropped, no mbufs"
-The driver ran out of mbuf's.
-This may suggest a resource problem.
-.It "lnc%d: Couldn't allocate memory for NIC"
-This is a fatal error.
-The driver will not attach to the card under this
-circumstance.
-.It "lnc%d: Memory allocated above 16Mb limit"
-ISA and ESIA cards require bounce buffers for DMA transfers above 16mb.
-The Am7990 and Am79C960 only have 24 address lines and so can only access
-the lower 16Mb of physical memory.
-The
-.Nm
-driver assumes the memory it allocates is within the lower 16Mb range.
-This is not a very valid assumption but there is nothing that can be done
-about it yet.
-For shared memory NICs this is not relevant.
-.It "lnc%d: Device timeout -- Resetting"
-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 card is configured for.
-.It "lnc%d: Transmit late collision -- Net error?"
-.It "lnc%d: Loss of carrier during transmit -- Net error?"
-.It "lnc%d: Transmit of packet failed after 16 attempts -- TDR = %d"
-.It "lnc%d: Heartbeat error -- SQE test failed"
-.It "lnc%d: Babble error - more than 1519 bytes transmitted"
-.It "lnc%d: Missed packet -- no receive buffer"
-.It "lnc%d: Memory error -- Resetting"
-.It "lnc%d: Couldn't get mbuf for transmit packet -- Resetting"
-.It "lnc%d: Receive buffer error"
-.It "lnc%d: Receive overflow error"
-.It "lnc%d: Receive interrupt with buffer still owned by controller -- Resetting"
-.It "lnc%d: Receive interrupt but not start of packet -- Resetting"
-.It "lnc%d: Start of packet found before end of previous in receive ring -- Resetting"
-.It "lnc%d: End of received packet not found -- Resetting"
-.It "lnc%d: Transmit interrupt with buffer still owned by controller -- Resetting"
-.It "lnc%d: Transmit interrupt but not start of packet -- Resetting"
-.It "lnc%d: Start of packet found before end of previous in transmit ring -- Resetting"
-.It "lnc%d: End of transmitted packet not found -- Resetting"
-.It "lnc%d: Transmit buffer error -- Resetting"
-.It "lnc%d: Transmit underflow error -- Resetting"

-.Sh HISTORY
-The
-.Nm
-device driver first appeared in
-.Fx 2.2 .
-.Sh AUTHORS
-.An -nosplit
-The
-.Nm
-device driver was written by
-.An Paul Richards .
-Support for the AMD PCHome phone-line based network added by
-.An Robert Watson .
-This manual page was written by
-.An David E. O'Brien .
-.Sh BUGS
-This driver has the potential of being the most verbose of any of the
-Ethernet device drivers.
