  src - Imported sources
  Update of /home/ncvs/src
  In directory freefall.freebsd.org:/c/users/joerg/src
  
  Log Message:
  This is my first cut on a driver for the RealTek RTL 8002 pocket
  ethernet driver.
  
  The BUGS section is still impressive, but the driver seems to work for
  me now.  Disclaimer: i haven't been able to test this under -current
  so far (but it compiles, and the notebook it's intended for can now be
  updated to -current more easy than before).  Don't be afraid of the
  many #ifdefs on __FreeBSD_version in the imported file; i want them in
  the repository on the vendor-branch so other people can also manually
  integrate it into older systems.  I'll clean it up on the -current
  branch in a followup commit.  The vendor-banch version right now
  supports systems back to 2.2R.
  
  This driver should be layered upon ppc(4), but i currently have no
  idea how to do this.
  
  Eventually i'll further develop the driver to also support the more
  modern RTL 8012 success, which seems to be present in a number of
  cheap pocket ethernet adapters these days.  Right now, i doubt it will
  run with the 8012 without any changes.
  
  Finally a big Thanks! to RealTek for promptly providing me with
  documentation and with the source code for the 8012 pocket driver upon
  request.  I wish all vendors were that cooperative!.
