Hi!
 In if_ed.c, the ethernet driver, the sizes of the transmit and 
receive buffers are set. For 16bit cards, the transmit buffer size
is set to 2 buffers, each 6 pages, each page being 256 bytes.
And the remaining memory is set aside for the receiver ring buffer.

I would like to know if it is possible to set the transmit buffer
size to be larger, say 6 buffers and leave the rest for the receiver,
in software ? That is, is this parameter software configurable ?

Thanks
