[0]State-Changed-From-To: open-closed
[0]State-Changed-By: peter
[0]State-Changed-When: Fri Sep 26 05:38:41 PDT 1997
[0]State-Changed-Why: 
[0]All media options are completely and utterly driver specific.
[0]
[0]If you take a driver from a third party you should not
[0]expect the driver that corresponds to the freebsd version to
[0]document the options that the 3rd party driver happens to implement
[0]on that particular card.  The 'de' driver (from matt's site)
[0]has different media options for different cards.

Uh, if you had read the problem report *completely*, you would have
found that I was reporting the problem with the stock, as-included
DE driver MAN PAGE that came in the 970921 release, AFTER discovering the
ifconfig interfaces had changed, rendering the 3rd party driver useless
to me on the 970921 release.   ONCE AGAIN, I WAS USING A 100% STOCK 970921
RELEASE.

Besides, this particular report is a DOCUMENTATION problem.  The 970921
ifconfig man page says to refer to the 970921 if_de man page, and guess
what?  The 970921 if_de man page has none of the expected ifmedia parameter
information.   

Please re-read and re-open the bug report.
